The programme was funded by a number of trusts which offered grants totalling nearly £900,000. Although all of the grants have now been awarded, a number of the projects are still within their funding period.
Funded projects
Each project is trying to make a tangible difference to the quality of life for terminally ill patients and their families by:
- developing new services and models of care
- increasing the skills of professionals by providing education and training
- making information available to patients, their families and carers (whether professional or informal).

Service development guide
As part of the programme, the University of Southampton School of Nursing and Midwifery evaluated the experiences of the funded projects and produced a guide to developing a non-cancer service. This resource offers advice on how to set up and run services for patients with conditions other than cancer.
You can download the Guide to developing a non-cancer service or order a printed copy from our publications team.
