Podcast

Podcasts can be a great way for sharing information as well as a great way to connect with far-reaching audiences and can provide a sense of community for people with shared interests. 

In this podcast, we will talk about bereavement by sharing with you some of the work and learning our team is involved in, as well as hearing from our guests who will share their own thoughts and reflections on bereavement. Our purpose is to put people at the heart of bereavement care combined with a values-based aim to support health and social care staff to do that for the people in their care. 

The podcasts deal with issues related to death and bereavement and were created for health and social care staff: caution is advised for those who are not health and social care staff as some may find the themes upsetting.  

Please note the views and perspectives expressed by guests on the podcast do not necessarily represent those of NES.
