Hospice Isle of Man is encouraging difficult conversations for Dying Matters Awareness Week.
This week, the charity wants the Manx community to get talking about death, dying, grief and plans for the end of life, as part of a national campaign.
Chief Executive of Hospice Isle of Man, Anne Mills, says right now people may be dying without the emotional and practical support they need, 'so let's get talking about this.'
