Finances

Kirkwood is dependent on private donations and charitable gifts. To help raise funds for patient care the hospice organises annual activities such as the Midnight Memory Walk, which has raised in excess of £200,000 for patient care over the last three years and an "It's a Knockout" style tournament. Other major fundraising events include tandem skydiving.

Patrons of the hospice include author Joanne Harris, world-renowned for bestsellers Chocolat, The Lollipop Shoes, Five Quarters of the Orange, and Runemarks.
