Report: Talking about death can be life changing

Research by Macmillan Cancer Support and YouGov show 3 in 5 people (62%) in the UK haven't spoken with the family or friends about their wishes in relation to their death.  Almost 1 in 4 (23%) did not know all of their family or friends' wishes. 

Macmillan has information and resources for people to help them plan for death, including a questionnaire to find out how ready they are to talk about it, a guide for starting the conversation and a planning checklist.
