## Description

By working in partnership with organisations that share our aim to improve practice in end of life care we want to : \(a\)deliver an outreach programme that will raise awareness, understanding and practical use of the guidance and resources we produce for doctors to support good end of life care\. \(b\)deliver added value for doctors by creating interactive opportunities for them to learn about our guidance and resources in conjunction with other tools and resources and ongoing support\. reach more doctors than we would otherwise be able to through our current channels, by building an association with a specialist organisation which is trusted and well respected in the end of life care field and linking our content more directly to clinical education and training\. \(C\)be able to evaluate the activity carried out, on a quantitative and qualitative basis, through measuring learning outcomes\.
