NHS boards flout legal duty on children's end-of-life home care

Campaigners allege that many NHS care boards in England are failing to provide at-home end-of-life care for seriously ill children, violating legal obligations and forcing children who wish to die at home to do so in hospitals. The claim is based on campaigner reports and is not yet independently verified. This highlights systemic gaps in palliative care provision and raises questions about legal compliance and equity across regions.
