🙌🏼 A campaign win, but more to do: yesterday, we were at Westminster pressing ministers to maintain the £25m Children’s Hospice Grant in England. Today, Health and Social Care Secretary @wesstreeting said he will make an announcement before Christmas, but that it will continue.
Good to see both the #darzi report and the @RCPCHtweets blueprint recognising the increase in childrenwith complex and life-limiting conditions - if we improve the system for this group then it will work for all children - the reverse is not true @CheungRonny@CSI_KCL
"You have to make adjustments to people who might be different to you."
Caller Darren starts his seven-minute long tribute to his community by telling @ShelaghFogarty how he interacts with people from other cultures, and how they've helped shape his outlook.

Looking forward to attending an APPG reception for children who need palliative care at Westminster today. Pressing the UK Government to take urgent action. @Tog4ShortLives@ForgetMNotChild
Hope can be sustained while holding both realistic and unrealistic illness expectations. Communication about serious news should focus on clarifying the expectations as well as supporting people’s hope. #hpm#hapc https://t.co/h8ypG9C2AT
Experts in #LearningDisability worked with volunteers who live with LD or/and autism to develop a guideline for talking about #death.
The volunteers used & reviewed established resources to give their opinions. We learned so much!
Please look at their poster.
Bravo @PCPLDnetwork
Oh, @DyingMatters, what a great quiz idea!

If you tell me your score, dear followers, I'll tell you mine when #DyingMattersWeek kicks off officially, on May 8th.
That gives you all a few days to take the quiz...

Great day discussing #palliative & #endoflifecare for #childrenandyoungpeople. Ensuring the child/young person & their family have personalised accessible multidisciplinary support across @WYpartnership was central to our conversations. Thanks v much for inviting me @Sayma100 🙏

Dear 🇬🇧,
A vote for the @Conservatives is a vote to kill the NHS. After 13 years of running the NHS into the ground, they have sacrificed your public health for their private wealth for far too long. If you value your family's safety, never vote for them ever again.
