Borough selection

HPAL extended across West and North London

HPAL is now serving all 13 boroughs across North West and North Central London with a directory of local services tailored to each borough. 

A translation toolbar has been added to improve accessibility for our diverse population. 

HPAL was co-designed by patients and clinicians to improve access to expert brief information relating to all aspects of palliative care. There is information for clinicians, patients, carers and families.

There is a national policy drive to improve health literacy and access to relevant information to support people at the end of life. These include:

  • The NHS Long Term Plan
  • The Commission on Palliative and End-of-Life Care
  • King's Fund report Dying well at home
  • The Lancet Commission on the Value of Death

HPAL can be tailored to any ICS in England. Please contact us if you wish to set up a version of HPAL in your area.
