Frequently Asked Questions
A charity working to help people receive the support, companionship and comfort they need at the end of their life.
Far too many people face the end of life in isolation. In England alone, we estimate that over 35,000 individuals die each year in hospitals without the comfort of a single visitor.
Tens of thousands more are struggling with the fear, silence and ignorance that surrounds death and dying.
Death and dying is universal to life and living, despite the pain and loss it brings.
We aim to help improve people’s experience of death through compassion, companionship and education, by:
- Helping healthcare organisations to build teams of trained volunteers who give their time to people who are dying, and those close them
- Educating and encouraging people to better understand death and dying
- Bringing fresh thinking to the inevitability of mortality in a way that fosters new thinking and breaks conventional taboos
Nobody Deserves to Die Alone
Everyone deserves companionship and a hand to hold in the last days and hours of their life
Death is a part of life
Despite the pain, challenges, and loss it entails, death and dying are integral and universal aspects of life and living
Relearning Death
Death has become medicalised, marginalised and hidden, which hinders the needs of the dying
