Our work in end-of-life care has been highly praised by all stakeholders, as reflected in Centre 404 being nominated twice and winning the Linda McEnhill award.
We collaborate closely with families and service users to positively impact the experience of death, dying, and bereavement for people with learning disabilities and autism.
People with learning disabilities often have additional needs in palliative and end-of-life care. Understanding and addressing these needs when providing care can enhance their quality of life and ensure they receive person-centred care.
In addition to common palliative care needs such as pain management and spiritual and emotional support, people with learning disabilities often face additional challenges. They are more likely to have unidentified health needs, making it difficult to recognize when they are nearing the end of their life. This underscores the importance of providing them with the right support.
As part of our commitment to ensuring that people with learning disabilities are at the centre of conversations and planning regarding their end of life, our teams have participated in the Victoria and Stuart Project Toolkit research project. You can learn more about it at www.victoriaandstuart.com.
Dying Matters Awareness Week: The Love and Loss Café.
This gentle, supportive workshop created space for open conversations around death, dying, and loss. Guided by our dedicated managers, participants explored important topics such as end-of-life planning and how to support someone with compassion and dignity during their final stages of life.
Talking about death isn’t easy — but it matters. At Centre 404, we’re committed to creating safe, understanding spaces where people can reflect, learn, and feel supported through life’s most difficult moments.
