Our campaigns

We are working towards a future when everyone, who is dying or grieving, can access the quality of care they need and deserve.

Right now, across the UK, many people who are nearing the end of their life or living with grief are unable to get the support they need. Through our influencing work, we are creating a movement for change.

Our long-term goals

We are ambitious about the change we can achieve. All our campaigns are working to reach these goals.

Fairer funding for palliative care

We are calling on the Government to commit to providing more sustainable ways of funding for the hospice care sector.

Better support for grieving people

We are working with the Government, other bereavement organisations and healthcare professionals to improve support available for people who are grieving.

Improving end-of-life care

We listen carefully to people who are dying, their loved ones and the professionals that support them, and we campaign to make sure everyone can have a good death.
