Sue Ryder supports people with complex needs and life-threatening illnesses across the UK and internationally. The charity is headquartered at Upper Woburn Place in London and is a registered charity in England & Wales.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.charitycommission.gov.uk/find-charities/ )〕 It dropped the word "Care" from its operating name in April 2011 after a public consultation suggested that it sounded unclear, corporate and distant.〔Tania Mason, (Sue Ryder wins five-year county-wide care contract ), ''Civil Society'', 7 April 2011. Accessed 23 September 2011.〕 In 2011/12 Sue Ryder had an annual expenditure of £81.9 million, placing it in the top 60 of UK voluntary organisations ranked by expenditure.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://data.ncvo.org.uk/a/almanac14/which-are-the-largest-voluntary-organisations-in-the-uk-3/ )〕 ==Main activities and centres== The charity supports people living with life-limiting and long-term conditions including brain injury, cancer, dementia, stroke, multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease and motor neurone disease.
