FAQs
Our Compassionate Communities services provide community-based support to help beyond patient palliative, end-of-life care and bereavement needs. The support is from diagnosis and involves working in the community with local partners and volunteers to reach more people earlier.​
The focus is on tackling the loneliness and isolation often experienced by people affected by bereavement and loss or those facing a life-limiting illness. ​
For more details, please see Compassionate Communities
Our Compassionate Communities services are available to anyone who has been diagnosed with a potentially life-limiting illness and/or is bereaved.​
We accept both professional and self-nominations for Compassionate Communities, as we recognise that people in emotional difficulty may need support in getting help. No formal nomination form is required.​
