Humans have 100% mortality. The rate of dementia is increasing. So, have you planned ahead to ensure you get what you want and reduce future burden on your loved ones? Love the gist of this book. Compassion in Dying has great resources to get started with thetimes.co.uk/article/8c85c6…

Hospices are under enormous financial strain. We offer vital support to our communities. Will Quince James Cleverly🇬🇧 Bernard Jenkin MP Giles Watling please speak on behalf of St Helena at parliamentary debate on support for hospices 9.30-11am Weds 14 July. Hospice UK


Last meeting as Board member of Dignity in Dying today, having served for 6 yrs. An inspiring & well run organisation. I am a proud supporter of legalising option of assisted dying. We need to listen to dying people & public opinion & embrace alongside hospice & palliative care


I remember a few jobs back helping launch the Expert Patients Programme in Cambs. Worked really well. It’s great to see a number of initiatives continuing to apply similar principles. Well done Compassion in Dying for sharing this


A strong argument for legalising the option of #assisteddying is the no. of suicides & attempted suicides by dying people. The Last Resort report exposes the shocking stats & is a powerful reminder that the status quo can be unsafe & lack compassion - features.dignityindying.org.uk/last-resort/

Great comment piece on failures of successive Govts to sort out social care. It would be better to invest in it than NHS in terms of health, wellbeing, & dignity. Also an even stronger, more immediate case for carer pay reform - I get the NHS needs ££ too thetimes.co.uk/article/42679e…



It is my pleasure to talk with Victoria Butler-Cole KC about terminology & legal framework that underpin the MCA, LPAs & DoLS + the CoP experience 🎧speakforme.co.uk/podcast-episod… Open Justice Court of Protection Project Celia Kitzinger Kathryn Mannix Tor Butler-Cole #AdvanceCarePlanning
