Help us celebrate the heroines in your life.

Lady Sue Ryder was an incredible woman who carried out extraordinary work. Starting in the World War II supporting refugees, she went on to leave a legacy of carers who provide 4 million hours of care a year for thousands of people with life-limiting illnesses, such as cancer. Now Sue Ryder charity provides care through 14 care centres and community based services.

Lady Ryder was the original inspiration for creating a female only awards ceremony to help raise awareness and funds for the local care in Bershire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire.

At Sue Ryder, we believe that life's a journey. And on that journey people can face huge challenges. We provide expert and compassionate support for people living through life-changing illness. Locally, we provide care at Nettlebed Hospice, Duchess of Kent House as well as community services in Wokingham and Newbury.
