Homelessness and palliative care

Throughout St Ann’s 50th anniversary, we’ll be sharing 50 bitesize webinars. Each month focuses on a specific theme, with a new bitesize session released each week to watch at a time that’s best for you.

This October, join us to understand more about the unique issues those experiencing homelessness have when faced with a life limiting illness or are approaching the end of life.

Homelessness and palliative care

In the first of our homeless webinars, Niamh Brophy, homeless palliative care coordinator at St Ann’s, will give you a brief overview and background to homelessness and share with you the reasons why we created our innovative outreach service to support the most vulnerable in our community.

Advance care planning

Andrew Knee, Palliative Care Coordinator at St Mungo’s, shares learnings from a collaborative project about creating specific advance care plan resources for people experiencing homelessness.

Homelessness and counselling

Joanne Brown, who helped pilot and deliver a homeless counselling service at St Ann’s Hospice, discusses the pilot project and what needs to be considered when counselling someone who is experiencing homelessness.
