Support St Luke's this festive season
The festive season is a time when we come together to support those who need it most.
While our team continues to provide compassionate end-of-life care in our In Patient Centre and in people's homes, there are many ways you can celebrate, remember loved ones and give back this Christmas.
Every act of support, big or small, helps St Luke's be there for local families, and we're incredibly grateful.
Sponsor a nurse
By sponsoring a St Luke’s Nurse this Christmas, you are supporting the people of Sheffield when they need it the most. A donation today will help to create special memories for patients and their loved ones, and support families during what can be one of the hardest times of the year.
Dedicate a Light to a loved one
Festival of Light is loved by St Luke's supporters, and for many, it marks the start of the festive season. As a community we come together to reflect and remember our loved ones.
We invite you to donate and dedicate a light to someone special.
Once you have made your dedication(s), you will receive an invitation to attend our light switch on event on Sunday 6 December.
