Mission, vision and values

We need to close the gap in end of life care and make sure everyone gets the care and support they need.

We want a better end of life for all

We’ll play a leading role in shaping the end of life system across the UK; driving research, influencing public policy, campaigning for change, and fighting for better services – so everyone has access to the end of life care and support they need.

Our mission

Over the next five years and beyond, our mission is to close the gap in end of life care. Between now and 2028 we’ll design and deliver services providing the best possible care and support to people living with any terminal illness, and those close to them.

Our vision

Everyone will be affected by dying, death and bereavement. That can’t be changed, but the end of life experience can. Everyone deserves the best possible care and support, reflecting what’s the most important to them.

Our values

Inclusion and equity are at the heart of all we do 

We want every part of Marie Curie to be a place where everyone feels accepted, respected, valued, and heard – whether they’re staff, volunteers, supporters or the people we help.  Find out more about our commitment to being a diverse, inclusive charity.
