Our Digital Assets & Digital Legacy Awareness Leaflet can be downloaded (for free) and provided to NHS patients by clicking here (PDF).

We have developed other resources that can be used and adapted to better support patients and communities with their care planning journey and when providing bereavement support.

We support the NHS when undertaking quality improvement projects, clinical and non-clinical trails within this field.
