Just a lil reminder today 🩵

Lichfield cyclist getting in the saddle to thank hospice buff.ly/3w4wwKo

📣 The debate on hospice funding has been rescheduled for Monday 22nd April.

We need to see as many MPs as possible there to talk about this important topic, and what needs to be done to ensure hospices are well supported now and long into the future.

For anyone who may need this reminder today: It's perfectly OK to say no.

Thanks Ashgate Hospice for joining us on BBC Breakfast to speak up for the hospice sector as it faces a £77m deficit.

We need a new funding model for hospices – the cost of not supporting them would be devastating for patients, families, staff, communities and the NHS itself.
