Overview

Gambling Connection: LONGFIELD HOSPICE CARE holds a UK Gambling Commission licence that allows it to operate charitable society lotteries as a fundraising tool. This is common practice for hospices and similar charities, and it's the sole reason the company appears in the Saferwager database.

LONGFIELD HOSPICE CARE is a private company limited by guarantee, the standard legal form for charities in the UK. It's been active since 25 January 1988, giving it over 38 years of continuous operation, and it's registered at Longfield Burleigh Lane in Stroud, Gloucestershire. Its primary activity falls under SIC code 86900, covering human health activities rather than gambling.

The company isn't a gambling operator in any commercial sense. Its UKGC licence, held since February 2021, covers the kind of small-scale society lottery fundraising that hospices and charities commonly run to supplement their income. Companies House records show no outstanding charges and accounts filed within the past year, reflecting the kind of administrative discipline you'd expect from an established charitable body.

LONGFIELD HOSPICE CARE scores 100 out of 100 on Saferwager's company scoring, earning an A+ grade. That reflects its long incorporation history, active status, full UK-resident board, and clean compliance record. The company has declared that no individual or entity holds significant control, which is the correct position for a charity governed collectively by its board.

Governance

The company has eight current directors, all British nationals resident in the United Kingdom. It has filed a PSC exemption statement declaring no individual or entity with significant control, which is the expected position for a charity of this type. The board composition is broad, with appointments spanning several years.
