Understanding the Needs of the LGBTQ+ Community at End of Life

Tuesday 11th November 2025, 09:30am – 13:30pm

St Wilfrid’s Hospice Education Team is launching a new, discussion-based workshop exploring the unique experiences and needs of LGBTQ+ people, including trans and gender-diverse individuals, when approaching the end of life. The course is open to all health and social care professionals.

Drawing on Hospice UK’s I Just Want to Be Me report (2023), the Learning Framework for LGBTQ+ Care in Later Life (2023), and other evidence-based guidance, this workshop will help you:

• Understand the barriers faced by LGBTQ+ communities at the end of life
• Explore practical ways to provide inclusive, affirming, and compassionate care
• Strengthen person-centred practice across health and social care settings

Cost:

• Fully funded for all Sussex employees in health and social care (via NHS Sussex)
• £50 for participants outside Sussex (includes all course materials)
