There are excellent modern palliative services, which include a day hospice, complementary therapies centre, bereavement service and access to a multi-lingual advocacy team. Consultants are encouraged to input into a busy and active education centre and develop areas of specialist interest, for example developing links with harder to reach services such as the homeless, undertaking research, audit and education.
