What we do

  • Collaboration

    We collaborate with NHS Hospitals, Community NHS Trusts, and Hospices across the country to help them set up and manage teams of specialist volunteers

  • Resources

    We provide online resources (e.g. My Wishes Checklist) and engage on social media to facilitate honest conversations about death and dying, offering support and guidance through the end-of-life process.

  • Education

    We deliver Simple Wisdom workshops to individuals, care home staff, carer organisations, corporate groups, HR teams, and more.

The funds that you raise help us get support to people at the end of their life, so they are not alone.

Fundraising comes in all shapes and sizes – there is something for everyone.

Volunteer

We work closely with healthcare organisations to help them get this vital support to patients as quickly and efficiently as they can.
