In line with the Children and Young People and End of Life Care Trust wide strategies, a study day (dates below) is being held to support all clinical staff to care for children and young people whose adult family member is dying or has died. 

The event will have external guest speakers from Child Bereavement UK, The Ruth Strauss Foundation and Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice as well as internal speakers. Lead Nurse for Children and Young People, Julie Mellor, and End of Life Care Facilitator, Gillian Sykes, see this as a fantastic opportunity to work together across children’s and adult services and urge colleagues to book a place on one of the two dates available:

• Wednesday, 21st May - Rooms 3 and 4, Acre Mills third floor - 09:00 to 16:00
• Monday, 20 October - Forum 1A and 1B, HRI Learning Centre - 09:00 to 16:00

Please email eolcteam@cht.nhs.uk to book onto one of the dates.
