Let's talk about death and dying (booklet)
We all seem to find it difficult to have conversations about dying and death. It's an intergenerational thing. We know this because of our social research, which gave us some surprising insights - it seems that we can all talk to our peers but not our families. This book is designed for everyone; to help us start to talk to our family and friends, grown up children, and our grandchildren.

It also ensures that your loved ones have the details they need if they ever have to sort something out on your behalf.
