Today is #AdvanceCarePlanningDay & we want to highlight the power in having discussions about your wishes & values for your future health care! We believe this process needs to be more accessible & the best way to do so is with the #NoBarriersHere approach (1/3)
Fourth 🚆 station of the morning & all before 9am 🕘
Looking forward to the next few days working with Hospice UK Policy & Advocacy team - a much needed project exploring financial hardship in palliative care.

1 place left for No Barriers Here©️ Facilitator Training on Friday 3rd May.
One size does not fit all. Adding No Barriers Here©️ to your toolkit offers an equity-oriented & less verbal approach to advance care planning, enabling more people to express their end of life wishes.
This is so exciting. The UK’s first National Advance Care Planning Day is taking place on Monday 8th May.
Well done to all involved in starting this important initiative in the UK 👏

Looking forward to visiting Foyle Hospice with Catherine Hodge this week.
The first of 5 Hospice UK focus groups across England, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland to explore and better understand people’s experiences of death, dying and financial hardship to inform a new report.
Pulling a 12.5hr day on a Friday wasn’t in the plan 😴 but it’s been an immensely productive & mostly enjoyable week.
Highlights include CYP coproduction meeting (always a joy) & having 2 abstracts accepted for Public Health Palliative Care International International Conference 2024 😃
