Claire Henry, chief executive, National Council for Palliative Care, at York Way, London, writes: I am writing to encourage local residents to contribute to an important national review of choice in end-of-life care. Almost half-a-million people die in England each year, but significant numbers do not have proper opportunities for their choices about how, when and where they receive end-of-life care to be identified, discussed or met. That is why the Government set up an independent review into choices in end-of-life care, which I was asked to chair. Whether you're a member of the public or someone who has a professional interest, we want to hear from you. We're interested in finding out what choices would matter most to you – whether about the importance of being able to choose where you would want to be cared for and die, how you would want to be involved in decisions about your care, or any other aspect of end-of-life care. To find out more and to take part in the review, which you can participate in until September 30, 2014, please visit http://www.ncpc.org.uk">www.ncpc.org.uk, call 01235 512384, or email choice [email protected]">[email protected].
