I’m supporting the MND Association and Marie Curie campaign to improve access to financial support for the terminally ill.
Currently, someone is only considered terminally ill if there is a reasonable expectation of having six or less months left to live, but this definition excludes people with complex and unpredictable terminal conditions from accessing the financial support they need in a timely manner.
It’s absolutely crucial that we make sure that anyone facing such a difficult time gets all the care and support they need, when they need it.
