THE DYING MATTERS
COALITION
Set up by the NCPC for all those involved in palliative care,
to support the 2008 End of Life Care Strategy
We are a broad based, inclusive national Coalition,
working in partnership, with over 30,000 members -
across the NHS, voluntary and independent health sectors,
social care, housing, faith and belief groups, community,
pensioner, retirement organisations, schools, academia,
legal, insurance, finance & funeral sectors
• “Support changing knowledge, attitudes and
behaviours towards death, dying and bereavement,
and through this to make ‘living and dying well’ the
norm.”
Our Mission:
www.ncpc.org.uk
The Dying Well
Community Charter
• Commissioned by PHE
• To review the “Good Death
Charter”
• RCGP & RCN agreed to
support rather than revise their
own charter
• Consultation & revision
• Published alongside the
Public Health Approaches
toolkit
• Brief to “roll it out” in 6 places

“Dying and death do not happen in isolation
from the rest of life. People who are dying may
not wish to be isolated and disconnected from
their communities. There is more to do to
engage communities in the end of life so that
those affected by dying and death do not feel
abandoned and socially isolated. Care for one
another at times of crisis and loss is not
simply a task for health and social care
services but is everybody’s responsibility.”

National Choice Review
“We support public health
approaches to end of life care, for
example the Dying Well
Community Charter, published by
the National Council for Palliative
Care and Public Health England, and
the Compassionate Cities approach
and advise that health and social
care commissioners include
initiatives to support and
strengthen community resilience
and involvement in end of life care
in their plans”

movement
