Dying Matters 2025

This week marks #DyingMattersAwarenessWeek (5–11 May), led by Hospice UK, with this year’s theme: #TheCultureOfDyingMatters.

It’s a powerful reminder of the importance of open, honest conversations about dying, death and grief — and how our diverse cultural backgrounds shape those experiences.

🎥 Watch this moving conversation between volunteers at St Joseph’s Hospice as they share their personal and cultural experiences of death and what connects their experiences:
