    THE DYING MATTERS COALITION

    Dying Matters was set up by the National Council for Palliative

    Care, the umbrella charity for all those involved in palliative

    care, to support the 2008 End of Life Care Strategy

    Our aim is to raise public awareness about the importance of

    talking more openly about dying, death and bereavement and

    of making your wishes known

    Dying Matters has over 30,000 members ranging from health

    and care organisations, funeral directors, legal and financial

    organisations and thousands of individual members

    Just 36% of adults said they had made a will

    29% had let someone know their funeral wishes

    6% had written down wishes or preferences about the care

    they would want if they couldn’t make decisions

    51% of people with a partner were unaware of their wishes

    DYING MATTERS: AWARENESS

    WEEK 2014 IMPACT

    We want to build on the impact of last year’s awareness week.

    Member engagement was a real success story with hundreds of events and

    activities across the country in shopping centres, town halls, hospices,

    hospitals and arts venues.

    At a conservative estimate, member activities directly reached over 500,000

    people, with 8,000+ volunteer hours contributed

    Over 300,000 Dying Matters promotional items were distributed in the run up

    to awareness week

    www.dyingmatters.org saw its highest ever traffic, with record numbers of

    page impressions and visitors.

    Social media was hugely successful. The #YODO hashtag (which we

    promoted in relation to the theme of the awareness week: You only die once),

    was used 8,789 times during the week.

    Our YouTube channel experienced unprecedented traffic, with more than

    1,000 hours of Dying Matters films watched. Dr Kate Granger’s film alone was

    watched more 6,800 times during the week.
