When someone you care about is nearing the end of their life, those feelings can be even harder to carry. Mental health matters every day, not just in a crisis. Be gentle with yourself. Make space for how you feel. Ask for help if you need it.

This week we welcomed @GWH_NHS to our head office to train their Volunteer Coordinator and the rest of their team, ready to set up their end of life volunteer service!

That means more people will receive the comfort and companionship they deserve at the end of life.

A few weeks ago, Lynn and Isabella from our team attended the launch of the Friend in Need volunteer service at @UHSussex.

They had some great conversations about the service with Chair of the trust, @PhilippaSlinger, and Palliative Medicine Consultant Ollie Minton @drol007.

Too often, we avoid talking about death, even though it’s something we’ll all face. It’s not always an easy conversation, but it’s an important one.

For some, today is a chance to celebrate. For others, it’s a quiet day of remembrance. For many, it’s a bittersweet mix of love, loss, and reflection.

Whether you're marking today with a hug, a memory, or taking a moment for yourself, we’re thinking of you 💜

When families rush into hospital to be with a loved one, they don’t always have time to think about the little things they might need. Princess Alexandra Hospital have put together thoughtful self-care packs, filled with lots of essential items 💜

Coping with anticipatory grief can be challenging, but there are ways to help navigate these emotions. We hope this helps if you, or someone close to you are going through a difficult time 💜
