Job responsibilities
Marie Curie is the UKs leading end-of-life
charity. We are the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the
only provider across all 4 nations, delivering community nursing and hospice
care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects
of dying, death, and bereavement. Our leading research pushes the boundaries of
what we know about good end-of-life, and our campaigns fight for a world where
everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an
illness they're likely to die from.
The care and support we provide is highly valued by
the people we care for and their loved ones, but at present we are only
reaching around 10% of dying people at the end of life. Right now, one in four
people in the UK with a terminal illness, do not get the care or support they
deserve at the end of their lives.
