Help improve end of life care information for Derbyshire 💙

Joined Up Care Derbyshire want to make sure people in our community can easily find helpful information and support about end of life care.

They’re updating the ‘member of the public’ page on the End of Life Care Toolkit website, which is there to guide and support anyone who needs help at any stage – when they are supporting a loved one receiving end of life care, or if they are receiving this care themselves: https://derbyshireeolcare.uk/

They want the website to be easy to use, relevant to needs and helpful for anyone facing the death of a loved one, or approaching the end of their life.

To help them update the website in-line with what local people would find useful, they need your help. Please take just a few minutes to fill in their short survey: https://derbyshireinvolvement.co.uk/end-of-life-toolkit-website

The closing date for feedback is Friday 16th January.

When you donate your real Christmas tree through our Treecycle campaign, it doesn’t just disappear – it goes on to make a real difference for the environment and our local community.🌲♻️

Once collected by our wonderful volunteers, we work with SNS Trees to chip every tree. Last year, the resulting wood chippings were donated to local farmers, helping them improve their farms and agricultural practices. 🌾

By recycling your tree, you’re not only reducing waste but also supporting sustainable farming right here in North Derbyshire. Thank you for your support!

Register your tree for collection on 8th to 10th Jan 2026: https://blythehousehospice.org.uk/treecycle/ 🎄💚
