Death Deserves Better
We all want to honour our loved ones’ final wishes. But if we never talk about them, how can we know?
Unspoken wishes
Every day, your support is helping Sue Ryder to be there for people facing terminal illness, dying, and grieving. There’s a taboo when it comes to talking about death in the UK, and almost 4 in 5 people say they haven't discussed their last wishes with loved ones*.
This means that end-of-life and after-death wishes often go unspoken. This can lead to a delay in reaching out for vital palliative care and support, and leave loved ones wondering if there was more they could have done.
A lasting act of love
With over 70 years’ experience caring for people affected by terminal illness and grief, at Sue Ryder we understand how important it is to talk about what matters most before the end of life.
Talking about what matters most before someone dies is a lasting act of love. Our free guide, Your Death Deserves Better, is helping people to start those conversations.
