There is no right or wrong place to die; it will be different for everyone. But it is important for families to think about it, to talk about it, and to plan for it.

We need to be braver about talking about death, dying and bereavement, and better at making sure the right plans are put in place to protect ourselves and our loved ones at the end of life.
