Community Voices – Your perspective matters for End of Life care

• 22 May 2024

Arthur Rank Hospice Charity invites local people from diverse backgrounds and ethnic minority communities to join their “Community Voices” events, where your thoughts and experiences regarding care for life-limiting conditions and at the end-of-life, are valued and much needed.

The Charity, which provides palliative care, recognises that Cambridgeshire has a diverse population, and its care is not as accessible to some local communities. The Arthur Rank Hospice Charity wishes to explore the barriers and needs of those who are underrepresented in conversations about end-of-life care.

They are inviting your invaluable perspective, rooted in your community, faith, and heritage. Carly Wills, Matron of Clinical Services comments:

“We want to hear from you about what matters most at the end of life, both for yourself and for your loved ones. During our sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to share your thoughts with our teams across Arthur Rank Hospice Charity. We’re here to listen, to learn, and to understand how we can provide better care and support that reflects the needs and values of your community.”
