The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill has passed its Second Reading.

A historic first step to meet the aspirations of the public, who overwhelmingly support having choice, dignity, and compassion at the end of their lives.

Great day in UKHSA West Mids office today with a refresher training morning on clinical audit led by Cassie.
Then a North patch team meal out at the end of the day.
Need to get UKHSA to segue over here and join the Blue Skies!
