Business and Corporate support

You + St Oswald’s Hospice = perfect partners in the business of care.

Your business can make a big difference to local families at what might be the most difficult time of their lives.

We work with a variety of businesses across the North East, developing unique partnerships that have a lasting impact.

We rely on the support and generosity of businesses to help us keep our doors open for all who need us across our local communities in the North East, and it’s important to us that it works for you, too. We can help boost your business profile, increase staff morale and help you to reach your CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) aims and more, all whilst you’re supporting the business of care.

Did you know that our Bereavement Team now offer specialist bereavement support training packages to employers?

All support and training for businesses is currently delivered online and is designed to help you understand grief and loss, and to learn how to support bereaved people in your workplace. The training will help you to understand what people experience when a loved one dies, how it impacts their life, how you can support that person and why this is important. Our aim is to hopefully help to build your confidence in supporting people who have been bereaved.

In 2020, Hospice UK reported that 56% of UK adults would consider leaving their job if their employer did not provide the proper support if someone close to them died. This avoidable loss of skilled workers can be detrimental and costly.

All our training is led by our Bereavement Team and there are a range of packages available to suit your organisation and staff.
