Birmingham St Mary's Hospice is in Selly Oak, Birmingham. It was established in 1979, and since then has cared for thousands of people with conditions such as cancer, motor neurone disease and MS.

In addition to a 25-bed Inpatient Unit, where people can stay for vital respite, St. Mary's boasts a 20-place Day Hospice and provides care to people who wish to stay in their own homes. The Day Hospice is a community in its own right, with people of all ages visiting every week to find release through a range of therapies, art and most importantly fellowship. The Hospice also supports bereavement preparation, physiotherapy tuition and counselling in addition to many other services.
