Our donations to St. Catherine's Hospice, Crawley

Kate's Trust has given £59,000 over 4 years to the Community Nursing Service. Today, this St. Catherine's Service supports over 500 patients and their families at home at any one time. In 2003, when Kate died, we knew of no available home nursing in Mid-Sussex. In 2005, St. Catherine's had two community nurses.
