Princess Diana's Charities

Princess Diana was patron of many charities, and she worked tirelessly to help each and every one.

She would be happy with the knowledge that she also has a charity in her name. At the end of 2002 they have handed out over $50 million to various organisations and people.

Charity Links

The Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice.
The New Glasgow Hospice Trust was founded in 1980 by Dr Anne Gilmore supported by a group of dedicated volunteers. Shortly after the City of Glasgow gifted the Hospice to His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and Lady Diana Spencer on the occasion of their marriage and the Hospice was subsequently renamed The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice. However, despite our illustrious-sounding name, we are a charity and not a wealthy one. Diana, Princess of Wales, supported us by personal appearances and private donations throughout her life. HRH The Prince of Wales continues to be our active Patron. Nevertheless, it is the everyday generosity of the public donating to the Hospice that enables us to care. {Updated 22nd July 06 - Report broken link}

Red Cross Britain
The British Red Cross cares for people in crisis in local communities throughout the British Isles and overseas as part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.

Overseas, as part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, the British Red Cross assists in the aftermath of natural and manmade disasters, such as earthquakes, famine and war. It also works directly with local communities to improve their ability to cope with natural disasters and the 'silent emergencies' of disease and hunger.

In the British Isles, the British Red Cross supports the statutory services at the scenes of major emergencies, such as train crashes, floods, or public evacuations, by providing first aid and welfare services to victims and their families.

This work is carried out by a network of some 40,000 volunteers, who maintain their skills by delivering services to vulnerable people in local communities. These services include helping the elderly or infirm on discharge from hospital, loaning medical equipment on a short-term basis, or helping those separated from their families to be reunited. {Updated 22nd JUly 2006 - Report broken link}
