Hospices across the North West are set to receive £9.2 million from a new government end-of-life care fund.
Blackpool’s Trinity Hospice will get over £600,000.
The funding comes as hospices face rising demand and a £60 million sector shortfall.
Care Minister Stephen Kinnock said: "At this most difficult time, people deserve to receive the best care in the best possible environment with dignity."
Hospices in the north-west of England provide services for about 23,000 people, with demand and costs continuing to rise.
