On World Cancer Day, we were delighted to join our member organisation, Ulster University for this fantastic conference 'Integrating research to deliver innovative cancer care'. The breadth of research and innovation taking place across the cancer trajectory, including palliative and end-of-life care is inspiring and a testament to the hard work and dedication of all involved. Congratulations on such a successful event.

Join our volunteer group, Voices4Care and become part of a group of people working together to help to improve palliative care for people with palliative care needs now or in the future and their families. For more information, visit: aiihpc.org/voices4care/ #UseYourVoice #IVY2026

We are delighted to announce the launch of the newly redesigned and updated website- The Palliative Hub – Carers, part of The Palliative Hub suite of websites developed by AIIHPC. This site is specifically designed for carers who are supporting someone with palliative care needs. It offers clear, accessible information and guidance to support carers provide care for their loved one, and look after themselves. The redevelopment was shaped through focus groups with AIIHPC’s Voices4Care volunteer group, Health and Social Care Professionals, and a wider public survey, ensuring the content is grounded in lived experience. Visit the new site here- carerspalliativehub.com

The Health Committee has launched a report of its Inquiry into Access to Palliative Care Services at an event in Parliament Buildings. The report will be debated in the Assembly Chamber this afternoon. You can view the report here: lk.cmte.fyi/PalliativeCare… @CCampbell162 @NIHospice @AIIHPC

We were delighted to join our members and colleagues at this year's Hospice UK Conference in Liverpool. Feeling inspired by the theme of 'Collective Strength, Compassionate Care', there were many powerful conversations about compassion, dignity and the future of palliative care. We were also grateful for the opportunity to share our work with colleagues.
