Living Well Dying Well – Lewes, East Sussex

Living Well, Dying Well aims to shed light on how to accept, plan and prepare practically, emotionally and spiritually for the end of life. We help people think about it, talk about it and plan for it, in a safe and supported way.

They also work closely with health professionals, because they see the way they work matters very much to those who are dying and to the people who love them. They offer training seminars to practitioners, to build skills and support them to find ways of feeling more comfortable around death in their professional life.

This year they are pioneering the first training course for Doulas for the Dying.  This is a non medical companionship role to support people at the end of life. Doulas support the whole family practically, emotionally and spiritually, to be together in a meaningful way, in the valuable days that remain.

SD Britain has supported the the project in its early development by funding development of management systems, and has also provided the funding to enable the first Doulas for the Dying training course to take place. www.livingwelldyingwell.net
