Hospice Isle of Man has received a donation of £7,899 from NFU Mutual’s Isle of Man branch through the insurer’s Agency Giving Fund, after staff nominated Hospice as their chosen charity for 2026.
The NFU Mutual Agency Giving Fund is an annual initiative that empowers local branch offices across its network to nominate front-line charities for direct financial support. As part of NFU Mutual’s wider £4 million charitable pledge for 2026, £2.33 million has been allocated to local causes through the fund, with branches selecting organisations that make a meaningful difference in their communities.
The Isle of Man branch chose Hospice this year because its services have touched the lives of members of the local team, giving them first-hand experience of the care and support provided to patients and families across the Island.
Vanessa Naudé, Corporate Relationships & Events Executive at Hospice Isle of Man, said: “We are incredibly grateful to the entire NFU Mutual Isle of Man team for nominating Hospice as their chosen charity this year. Many of the people who support Hospice have a personal connection to our work, and it is especially meaningful when businesses choose to give because they have seen the impact of our care first-hand.
“This generous donation will help us continue providing specialist palliative and end-of-life care, as well as support for families and loved ones, free of charge to those who need us.”
David Wilkinson, Branch Manager at NFU Mutual Isle of Man, said: “ We are pleased to be able to support Hospice Isle of Man through the Agency Giving Fund and recognise the vital role it plays in our community.”
The Agency Giving Fund was established in 2020 to support local charities and community organisations, with funding directed by NFU Mutual’s local agency teams to ensure support reaches causes making a real difference in their areas. The fund supports a wide range of organisations , including hospices, mental health services, community groups and charities tackling social isolation and hardship.
