We were pleased to share evidence with the Independent Expert Panel’s new review of palliative and end of life care. The report highlights gaps in commissioning, workforce pressures, and persistent inequalities. We’ll continue championing the voices of those we support. #EOLDUK #PalliativeCare

I hired a 'death doula' to help my mother in her final days
Doulas have become an increasingly normal part of childbirth. These hired assistants help expectant mothers, providing support in the lead-up to, during and after childbirth.

How can we bring death and dying back into the community? Opening up and having conversations with those close to you is a good place to start. #Endoflifedoula #EoLDUK #Deathdoula

Preparing for the end allows us to fully appreciate the present. Start by discussing your wishes with those important to you, creating a Will, and considering advance planning. Small steps today can bring immense peace of mind tomorrow. #Endoflifedoula #EoLDUK #Deathdoula

For many, Christmas is a time of connection & celebration. For those grieving, it can also bring a wave of emotions that feel at odds with festivities. Whether you’re missing someone special or simply finding the festivities overwhelming, it’s okay to feel that this time of year isn’t easy.

Revisiting my favourite media article about end of life doulas to date. Particularly thanks to the amazing raw and real stories from Mary Clear who I know inspires so many of us. I love the bluntness of the opening. #EndofLifeDoulas @eoldoulauk.bsky.social www.artefactmagazine.com/2022/02/15/t...
