End-of-life care not 'culturally competent' A study has been launched to try to boost the number of black and Asian people using end-of-life care services.

There is concern they feel excluded by the way the services are currently set up.
The researchers, from Leicester, plan to use their results to develop national guidance to improve access. BBC News
