In this special episode, part of Dying Matters Week, we sit down with Joanna and Joy, two end-of-life facilitators at South Tyneside and Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust (STSFT).

Together, they share their insights, experiences, and expert advice on how to navigate the difficult conversations surrounding death with care and understanding.

Joanna and Joy explore the importance of initiating open dialogues about end-of-life planning, addressing the emotional challenges faced by families, and providing guidance to those supporting loved ones through the final stages of life.
