Lawrence Nurses...
Compassionate Care at Home, Powered by Community Support
Discover how Lawrence Nurses provide free hospice-at-home care and how GivingLottery’s regular, unrestricted funding helps sustain vital end-of-life support for local families.
There are moments in life when home becomes more than just a place.
It becomes comfort. Familiarity. Safety.
It becomes the space where hands are held a little tighter and time feels a little more precious.
For families facing the final chapter of a loved one’s life, being at home can mean everything. And that is where Lawrence Nurses quietly step in.
Bringing Hospice Care Home
Lawrence Nurses is a dedicated community nursing charity providing free hospice-at-home care, respite support and bereavement services to local patients and their families.
Their dedicated nurses enable people with life-limiting illnesses to remain in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by loved ones, often fulfilling a deeply held wish at the most vulnerable time of life.
But their care extends beyond clinical support.
They bring reassurance in the early hours.
Guidance when families feel overwhelmed.
A steady presence when emotions run high.
They support not just the patient, but everyone around them.
Crucially, their services are provided free of charge, removing financial worry at a time when families need space to focus on what truly matters.
The Power of Unrestricted Funding
Delivering compassionate end-of-life care in the community requires skill, sensitivity and sustainable funding.
Like many small and medium-sized charities, Lawrence Nurses must carefully balance increasing demand with limited resources. Community-based hospice care relies on dependable income streams that allow services to be planned, nurses to be retained, and families to be supported without interruption.
This is where regular, unrestricted funding makes a meaningful difference.
Through our GivingLottery, supporters can play and nominate Lawrence Nurses as their chosen cause. Each weekly ticket helps generate consistent income the charity can rely on, without additional admin or reporting burdens for the charity.
With just 25 players, a cause can raise over £1,000 per year, funding that can be directed where it is needed most.
For a community nursing charity, that flexibility matters.
Regular lottery income provides dependable funding Lawrence Nurses can plan around, helping to ensure their nurses can continue delivering compassionate and dedicated care in people’s own homes.
In end-of-life care, that consistency is invaluable.
A Real and Lasting Difference
Lawrence Nurses share the impact in their own words:
“Supporters of the Giving Lottery are making a real and lasting difference to Lawrence Nurses. Every ticket purchased helps us provide free hospice-at-home care, respite support, and bereavement services to local patients and their families when they need us most. Regular lottery income gives us dependable funding we can plan around, helping to ensure our nurses can continue delivering compassionate and dedicated care in people’s own homes.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who plays and chooses to support us. By also signing up to support Lawrence Nurses through TheGivingMachine, supporters can raise free donations for us every time they shop online and at no extra cost to themselves.”
That phrase — real and lasting difference — captures it perfectly.
This isn’t one-off support. It’s sustainable. Predictable. Reliable.
And in end-of-life care, reliability is everything.
