As many as 1 in 4 dying people in the UK spend their final days without the end-of-life care and support they need.
Research also shows that access to palliative care services varies significantly, leading to a ‘postcode lottery’ in availability.
Playing a crucial role in bridging these gaps are hospice and end-of-life charities – fantastic organisations that bring dignity, comfort and expert care to people with terminal illnesses and their loved ones.
At Yarn, we feel incredibly proud to have already partnered with a wide range of national and local hospice charities. Now, we’d love to help many more tell their stories and increase their impact.
How we work with hospice care charities
When we work with a charity that helps provide palliative and end-of-life care, we begin by exploring what makes you unique – your mission, brand, services, and the people you aim to help.
During this discovery phase, we also dive deep into your brief, taking the time to analyse your goals, uncover opportunities and spot any challenges.
From this strong foundation, we craft authentic stories that connect with your target audiences and inspire the action in the real world.
But we don’t just stop at great storytelling. We also go above and beyond to make the whole project truly collaborative, stress-free and enjoyable.

Our projects for hospice care charities
"We had such a successful shoot. I’m amazed we covered so much in such a tight schedule, not only ticking off our clinical shots, but also capturing our fundraising images – all of which look fantastic. Thanks again for your patience, diligence and for putting up with our many requests, as well as for your understanding and sensitivity around our patients and staff."

Approximately
90%
of people who die in the UK would benefit from palliative care. However, many do not receive it, leading to significant unmet needs.1
In 2023
68.2%
of all deaths in England occurred in hospitals, highlighting the need for more community-based and hospice care options.2
By 2048, the number of people dying with palliative care needs in the UK is expected to increase by over
25%
reaching more than 730,000 annually.3
Government funding covers only about
30%
of hospice costs, leaving hospices heavily reliant on donations and other charity-based funding, which has become increasingly unsustainable.4
