DECIDE (Diverse experiences of End-of-Life Care for Dementia) establishing consensus and capacity for future research through collaboration and co-production.

Background: Dementia is a leading cause of death globally. However, end-of-life care is often poor or non-existent. People with dementia from ethnic minorities or socioeconomically deprived communities are even less likely to receive good palliative care.

Unrepresented, unheard and discriminated against: A qualitative exploration of relatives' and professionals' views of palliative care experiences of people of African and Caribbean descent during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background: People of African and Caribbean descent experienced disproportionately high mortality from COVID-19 and have poor access to palliative care.

Aim: To explore palliative care experiences of people of African and Caribbean descent during and immediately prior to the pandemic.

Design: Qualitative interview study with thematic analysis.

'That's as hard a decision as you will ever have to make': the experiences of people who discussed Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation on behalf of a relative during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background: COVID-19 brought additional challenges to Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (DNACPR) decision-making, which was already a contentious issue. In the UK, reports of poor DNACPR decision-making and communication emerged in 2020, including from the regulator, the Care Quality Commission. This paper explores the experiences of people who discussed DNACPR with a healthcare professional on behalf of a relative during the coronavirus pandemic, with the aim of identifying areas of good practice and what needs to be improved.
