"By publicly confronting her own mortality, she enabled us to take a peek at our own before death comes knocking, not taking no for an answer." @bowelbabe has made a huge impact in the end of life community by being unapologetically open: loom.ly/orIMI6Q

When @GaryScribbler was bereaved suddenly, he turned to doodling. His wonderful drawings have been shared so many times since and not only did he write this blog post for us, but he featured on our podcast: dyingmatters.org/blog/dont-bott… #DyingToBeHeard #DyingMattersAwarenessWeek

"Dying, just like being born, is a process our bodies go through quite naturally. Knowing what to expect takes away a lot of the fear." @drkathrynmannix goes through the process of dying with the idea of relieving anxiety around the subject of death: ow.ly/FWqv50Q95B0

We're sorry to have lost @GrangerKate - she did so much to improve end of life care and it was a privilege to have worked with her

COVID-19 is going to mean some people dying before their time, or some of us not being able to visit someone for a last time. It's going to affect us in ways we're only just starting to understand. We'll be sharing what we know using this hashtag #BeforeTheirTime

There is no right or wrong place to die. Yet thousands of people are dying each year without their needs & wishes being met. With the right planning & support, people can be #InAGoodPlace to die, at home, in a hospice or in hospital. Join us ow.ly/Tt5v50EHf59 #DMAW21
