While we welcome the Chancellor’s support for energy bills in today’s Budget, it doesn’t go far enough for people at the end of life.

A statement highlighting the financial strain of rising energy bills on those with terminal illnesses. It emphasizes the necessity of electricity for vital medical equipment and the impact on quality of life. A central message reads: "Everyone deserves to live well and with dignity until the very end." The statement concludes with contact details for Leanne Creighton from Sue Ryder. The background includes abstract blue, red, and yellow shapes.

Ahead of tomorrow’s Budget, The Daily Express have quoted our Chief Executive @JamesCSanderson on their front page today.
Alongside other charities we are calling on the Government to help us ensure everyone can access appropriate end-of-life care.

A text message emphasizes the lack of support for terminally ill individuals at night, highlighting their fear and loneliness. It also describes the distress of dying without privacy in a busy corridor. A quote states this isn't the desired end of life but a common reality for many. James Sanderson, Chief Executive at Sue Ryder, is mentioned.

Palliative and end-of-life care can help people stay closer to home, reduce avoidable hospital admissions and ease pressure on the NHS.
