Gentle Dusk

All of us worry about death and dying at some point, and we all have experience of it; but when the time comes for urgent decisions, it can be hard to find the words. Only 7 % of us have recorded our wishes and preferences for the care we would like at the end of our lives. Gentle Dusk is a socially-minded organisation raising awareness of the importance of end of life care planning. Through our training courses, workshops and support services, we aim to bring as much compassion as possible to death, dying and bereavement. We help people to document their emergency and future care wishes, financial and legal affairs. We want to help improve the quality of life for anyone facing death, for their loved ones and the health professionals involved in their care. At Gentle Dusk we believe that open and honest planning for the future doesn’t have to be scary. It doesn’t have to be sad. These conversations can be gentle, calm, reassuring and empowering – and we can help you get started.
