Here are reflective words from a local Compassionate Friend, lending a listening ear to people affected by death, dying, loss and bereavement. How can we make sure, those around us and our loved ones are cared for and emotionally #Inagoodplace to die? @DyingMatters

There is no right or wrong place to die. Yet thousands of people are dying each year without their needs & wishes being met. With the right planning & support, people can be #InAGoodPlace to die, at home, in a hospice or in hospital. Join us ow.ly/Tt5v50EHf59 #DMAW21

There is no right or wrong place to die; it will be different for everyone. What matters is that as far as possible, you’re in a good place. Could you share with us what it means for you and your loved ones to have your wishes heard? Feel free to get in touch.
