Poole hospice charity launches podcast series

The Poole-based Forest Holme Hospice charity has launched a new 21-part podcast series offering support and guidance for individuals facing a life-limiting illness or navigating grief.

Hosted by Forest Holme Hospice Charity’s CEO, Hannah O’ Hare, ‘Life & Loss’ brings together individuals of different ages and backgrounds with unique first-hand experiences, alongside healthcare professionals, to share their stories, knowledge, information and strategies for coping.

Life & Loss’ episodes are released on a weekly basis and began with Dr Amy Pharaoh discussing ‘What Does Dying Look Like’ followed by Mark Hayward’s personal account of ‘Living With A Brain Tumour’.

Further episodes include topics such as ‘The Importance Of End-Of-Life Care Planning’, ‘Finding Purpose Through Loss’ and ‘Mindfulness As A Tool For Grieving’, while Martin Edwards, CEO at Julia’s House Children’s Hospice in Dorset and Wiltshire, discusses the extremely emotive issue of ‘Grieving The Loss Of A Child’.

The podcasts are available on Forest Holme Hospice Charity’s YouTube channel www.youtube.com/@forestholmehospicecharity and on all audio platforms via https://linktr.ee/forestholmehospicecharity.
