“A recurring funding commitment for the remainder of this Senedd term is essential. Hospice teams are caring for people with increasingly urgent and complex needs, at a time when many services are under real strain from rising costs and demand.”
“Hospices will be making decisions right now as to the future of the services they can offer... they're making difficult decisions. We can also see that around 25% more people will need palliative and end-of-life care over the next 25 years.”
