No Barriers Here
@nobarriershere.bsky.social
An equity-informed programme that works in co-production to tackle inequity in palliative and end of life care.

"And there it was again, the messy table: glue sticks, paper, laughter, tears, and the brave beauty of people sharing what matters most. These workshops are never tidy, but they are always real."

Today we held our celebratory book chapter launch with bubbles (non alcoholic), cake, certificates of authorship, golden wrapped books & cards!

THIS is meaningful co-production!

It’s #PrideMonth & we’re sharing our resource ‘It’s more than rainbows in receptions’ - Working with LGBTQ+ People in Palliative and End of Life Care.

Inclusive and accessible #PEoLC care should be a right - not a privilege

We’re thrilled to see No Barriers Here being piloted with veterans by the team at St Catherine's Hospice, Lancashire 💚

This work is growing because of our partners & community & we believe that this is the first time NBH has been used with veterans in the UK.
