Hospiceuk.org write that, 

"Starting conversations about dying is often not as hard as you might think.

Every year, people around the country use Dying Matters Awareness Week as a moment to encourage all communities to get talking in whatever way, shape or form works for them. In 2024, Dying Matters Awareness Week takes place from 6 - 12 May and focuses on How we talk about Dying Matters."

So how are we getting involved?

This week we invite you to listen to a series of mini pods which discuss our own wishes for our funeral. 

We will chat about music, readings, quirks and eccentricities as well as a full length episode on the Friday which will be solely focused on the language we use when talking about terminal illness and death.
