Investing in family support leads to improved outcomes for families which deliver not just improved lives for children but also cost benefits to the state. As a society, we need to provide parents and carers with the ‘village’ it takes to raise a child. https://t.co/coYhiPZNXp

Cancer is scary enough. But now people with cancer are dealing with the impact of coronavirus on their treatment and care 💚

We're doing all we can to support them at this critical time, but we can’t do it without you.

"The ambition for 40,000 extra nurses simply brings staffing levels up to where they should be today, not where they will need to be to meet demand in five years’ time." Read @macmillancancer's response to the Interim NHS People Plan here https://t.co/tayawM4IYw

"The sooner we can get those awkward conversations, plans and wishes out in the open – or even just down on paper – the sooner we can get on with living.” says @KrisPoB in support of @macmillancancer's #letstalkaboutdeath campaign via @womanandhome https://t.co/YVEsNonc8F

"Starting vital conversations about death with your loved ones and making plans can help you feel less anxious about the future" says @macmillancancer's @DrKarenRoberts1 #letstalkaboutdeath via @itvnews https://t.co/LVoTB9V9uB

6 out of 10 people in the UK say they have not spoken to their family or friends about their wishes when they die, according to new research from @macmillancancer #letstalkaboutdeath via @guardiannews https://t.co/gwXFmxpDvT

In @Telegraph today, @blandsteve talks about why it's important to talk about death: It “gave her [Rachel] comfort” to know that her family wouldn’t be left struggling to piece together her affairs once she was gone." #letstalkaboutdeath https://t.co/qXbCKbxr5W

[Claire Rushforth @crushfrth]
