Fundraising
It now costs over £11,000 per day to run Ardgowan Hospice, with less than 40% of this being covered by the Government. Luckily, every year people like yourself from across Inverclyde and beyond continue to fundraise on our behalf. Through quiz nights, bake sales, ceilidhs, skydives and fun runs and any number of other weird and wonderful ways, thousands of pounds are generated to support the free care we provide.
Every year we support over 1,000 people living with a life limiting illness and their families. We are an independent local charity and all our services are free. Over 60% of our running costs need to be raised through fundraising and donations from compassionate individuals, groups, organisations and foundations.
Your contribution of time or money, as a volunteer, fundraiser or donor, makes a really meaningful difference to people when they need it most – people living in your community who may be your family, friends, neighbours or work colleagues.
Every pound raised and every minute of your time will help make a massive difference in people’s lives.
There are lots of ways to get involved and support your local hospice – here are just some of them.

Volunteering
At Ardgowan Hospice we love our friendly, dedicated volunteer team – volunteers are involved across the hospice, from helping within our In-Patient Unit and Access buildings to assisting in our charity shops and fundraising in Inverclyde. Without their incredible support, we wouldn’t be able to provide all the services our patients and families need.

Support our Shops
A bargain hunter’s dream, our charity shops feature a fantastic assortment of clothes, accessories, occasional furniture and household goods!
And when you shop with us, you are helping to care for more local families living in Inverclyde affected by life limiting illness.
We have stores across Inverclyde and an eBay site too so pop along or go online today to grab yourself a bargain.
