Death, dying and loss are part of life and affect all of us.

That’s why we have developed free in-person training modules for local people, groups, and organisations in central and south west London to spark conversations and increase awareness of these important topics. You can explore the training modules that we have on offer below:

Training modules:

• The power of planning ahead

In this module we will explore individual choices when it comes to future care, known as Anticipatory/Advance Care Planning and the power that comes with making a plan. 

• Let’s talk about death

Find it hard to talk about death? You aren’t alone. In this training we discuss why it is so hard to talk about, how we can tackle the elephant in the room and the benefits that come with having open and honest conversations.

• Introduction to bereavement, grief and loss

Grief is different for everyone. This module aims to share some useful theories around grief as well as guidance around supporting someone who is grieving.

• Compassionate Neighbours

Learn more about how to grow compassion and social connections for lonely and isolated people who are towards the end of life due to age or illness in your own community.

We aim for all attendees to:

• Improve on their knowledge of the chosen topic
• Increase their confidence in having important conversations around death, dying and loss
• Feel better prepared to support the people they come into contact with (including themselves) who are affected by death, dying and loss
• Have an understanding of what Royal Trinity Hospice does and the support we provide

Project Director The Furzedown Project:

“I was impressed by the learning provided the community engagement team at Royal Trinity Hospice. Emma is highly knowledgeable and a great facilitator. It was a safe and open space to talk about our views around death and dying and provided a lot of insight for myself and my team. It was also useful to hear all about the great work going on at Trinity. I would very much recommend booking yourself in.”
