Listen to Hospice UK Chief Exec Toby Porter (NB on Blue Sky) on the state of #hospice funding. “The problem is not with the level of charitable giving, but with the model of state funding, which is arbitrary, inconsistent and unfair.“ hospiceuk.org/latest-from-ho…

It's heartbreaking to see Hospiscare cut essential end-of-life services due to a £2.5m deficit amid rising costs and reduced donations. Hospices are facing the worst financial crisis in 20 years. Sustainable funding is needed now. itv.com/news/westcount…

Thank you Professor Chris Whitty for emphasising the need to improve end of life discussions and strengthen the provision of high-quality palliative care alongside discussions about assisted dying in Parliament today.

Dr Rachel Clarke (Palliative care doctor): If we don't address the state of palliative care, some people will "choose" to end their life through assisted suicide because we as a society don't care enough to give them the care that might make life worth living. (Dr Rachel Clarke)
