Important words here from @jonnyellis74 of @hospiceuk, highlighting the inequity of current palliative care provision @CommonsHealth yesterday
'How care is resourced depends entirely on where that person happens to be.' @jonnyellis74 spoke at the @CommonsHealth assisted dying inquiry this week. He said that in any debate on assisted dying, how we organise and fund palliative care needs to be considered. Watch here⬇️

Looking forward to reading this properly later in the sunshine, in my mother's buzzing beautiful garden with a cup of tea and hot cross bun.

Great to be working in real collaboration with K&M ICB and fellow charitable adult Hospices. Talking openly and honestly about the financial challenges we face and our commitment to providing excellent P&EoLC. We will rise to the challenge @BeckyPullenKM @hcjbennett @RakeshKoria
Lovely to come together today at @heartofkenthosp with CEOs & FDs across our K&M grant funded adult hospices to discuss steps towards PaEOLC sustainability - no resolution yet but a renewed commitment to get there through working together @RakeshKoria @hcjbennett @RachelStreet78

This is a beautifully written article by a volunteer at Hospice in the Weald. I read it first thing this morning and it gave me a renewed sense of purpose. Hospice care should be available to anyone who needs it and in order to achieve that we need fair, sustainable funding.
'Perhaps to immerse yourself fully in life, you have to confront mortality' - a moving article on why death matters. #deathmatters #endoflife #partoflife #deathanddying #palliativecare

I gave a lady a £1 coin this afternoon for her trolley. She said that it was the nicest and kindest thing that anyone had ever done for her. Whilst I appreciate her gratitude I hope it wasn't. 🤔
