Easter Chick Knit

Get involved all year round in our Knitted Chick Appeal

Knitters and chocoholics unite in our biggest annual Easter appeal. Thousands of knitted chicks filled with a single chocolate egg are distributed to schools and businesses across the North West prior to the Easter break. Their sales generate ten of thousands of pounds in funds for the hospice, and there are lots of ways that you can help.

How can I get involved?

Winter Ball

Help us to keep our vital services running by dancing the night away and digging deep!

Fundraising Materials

 

The expert care and support we provide is very costly and our annual running costs exceed £5.8 million. We receive little support from the government and rely heavily on our supporters to help us to fundraise.

If you would like to borrow some Francis House collection materials for a fundraising event, we will be happy to assist.
