CleanGill Cannon - Legacy Manager at Sue Ryder | Most people postpone writing a Will especially if they are still working as they feel it is too early in their life to think about it. In England almost two-thirds of people have not written a Will.* In some countries a deceased’s possession must go to specific people, but in England and Wales if a person dies ‘intestate’ – without a Will – the government decides how their estate will be divided up amongst family and loved ones**. National health and social care charity Sue Ryder is launching its Legacy Campaign through its nationwide network of 350 charity shops to raise awareness of the importance of writing a Will. Now in its third year, the campaign also asks people to consider leaving a gift in their Will in aid of the charity. | 20 1 11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanNatalie Riddler Fundraising Business Development Manager Coping with loss at Christmas Send your wishes on a star | Lights of Love : Christmas is usually a time when people are busy preparing the house to welcome family and friends for a special meal and to spend a joyful time together. For some people though, the festive season can be difficult as it may be the first time without a loved one who has died or no longer lives close by. People who have lost a loved one may not even want to think about celebrating Christmas though it will be difficult to ignore with singers performing Christmas carols in shopping centres, festive decorations everywhere and Christmas shopping catalogues coming through the door. Elise Hoadley, Hospice Manager at health and social care charity Sue Ryder, commented: “Some people may try to avoid thinking of Christmas which can be difficult once the festive season is in full swing. Whilst it can be a very emotional time because your loved one is not with you, I would encourage people to celebrate and share memories which can go some way to making the pain of grief ease over time. There are little things that everyone can do to cope with bereavement in particular at Christmas when our thoughts naturally turn to the people we love most. | 1 12 10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanWorld Hospice and Palliative Care Day - 9th October 2010 | In line with World Hospice and Palliative Care day (9 Oct), Sue Ryder highlights the importance of an individualised approach to end of life care, and calls on people nationwide to support the charity to raise vital funds. The charity is using the event to encourage local people and communities to take on a fundraising challenge or support its 350 shops to help raise the £13million it needs to continue to provide 4 million hours of care each year. Charitable hospices, such as Sue Ryder, play a vital role in delivery of palliative care covering 80% of adult care inpatient palliative care beds in the UK, yet on average receive only 32% statutory funding for services provided. Steve Jenkin, Director of Health and Social Care for Sue Ryder said: In these challenging economic times, ensuring palliative and end of life care is not one of the areas facing government spending cuts will be critical, as is the ongoing support that we need from local communities. | 6 10 10 | Free | View In iTunes |
