  Queenscourt Hospice  Southport was opened by HRH Princess Diana in June 1992.  The hospice is a 10 bedded facility that provides advanced palliative care to terminally ill (mainly cancer), progressive and those with incurable diseases.  Queenscourt not only comforts the dying but their immediate family with a level of immediate support that is second to non.  Queenscourt requires £1.5m per year yet only receives a 1/3 public funding and is therefore entirely dependent on fund raising to remain open.  End2End will directly contribute to the refurbishment of existing palliative care ward with new hydraulic beds and associated equipment.
