Dying matters week 6 - 12 May

Every year, people around the UK use Dying Matters Awareness Week as a moment to encourage all communities to get talking in whatever way, shape or form works for them.

This year's theme, 'The way we talk about Dying Matters', focuses on the language that we use, and conversations we have, around death and dying. You might find the information from Hospice UK helpful when thinking about talking with children about death and dying.

You may also be interested in the lesson plans provided by Winston's Wish.
