Baroness Winterton of Doncaster (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 6 January 2025

Debate

Hospice Funding

Contribution

My Lords, it is very good news that the commission is in the safe hands of Sir Mike Richards, who I worked very closely with when I was a Health Minister. Could my noble friend set out the ways in which the Government might assist the hospice sector with training, because there must be a crossover in the different tasks undertaken? In particular, could some of the changes announced for social care workers be transferred to the hospice movement?
