Had such a great day yesterday at our ANN UK CoP day that I forgot to take some during photos. Thanks to @drfinney77.bsky.social for the CAT 🐱 training in the morning. It sparked great discussion in the afternoon session.

I've written about what dying typically looks like - not as a 'pro' or 'anti' AD piece, but in the spirit of confronting a taboo. We've lost the easy familiarity with the patterns of dying that existed when death typically occurred in people’s own homes. Let's talk about it 🙏 @newstatesman.com
