There is significant inequality of access to Palliative and End of Life Care, which is partly due to reliance on charitable giving. Today I asked the government what steps they are taking to make sure everyone has access to high quality Palliative and End of Life Care when they need it.
Great to be part of @BristolDWS team day. Thank you for the invitation. Good to share & discuss together Palliative End Of Life Dementia Care and Advance Care Planning. Look forward to continuing working together to improve this for folk. #dementia#hospice

Yesterday was Nurses Day. 30yrs ago I started my training. I remain proud to be a nurse, a profession full of caring, innovative, highly skilled & incredibly hard working people. Thankful for all those who have influenced, coached, mentored & inspired me along the way.

Only 12 days left until Parliament has a crucial debate on hospice funding.
Hospices are the backbone of compassionate end of life care, yet they're in urgent need of increased funding to sustain their vital services.
