Butterwick Hospice

The Hospice was founded by Mrs Mary Butterwick OBE. Mary passed away in 2015 at the Hospice and until her death was still actively involved with the Hospice.

A Board of volunteer Trustees govern the Charity. The day-to-day operational management and strategic direction is delegated to the Chief Executive.


We operate from several sites both clinically and through support services. A second Day Hospice at Bishop Auckland is also the base for further day care units within community hospitals across County Durham.

All services are provided completely without charge to patients and their families. As a result, each year we need to raise over £4m to finance our work. NHS funding does provide us with a proportion (about 25%) of this and we raise considerable income through our trading companies (shops and lotteries). This leaves us with a balance of approximately £1.7 m to be raised through general fundraising: donations from the community, corporate support, grants, and a wide range of other activities. We have an active fundraising team, both employed and voluntary, working throughout the region to promote and support the Hospices.
