August 2026 Fellows' update: Sarah Yardley
Sarah Yardley (CF 2024) has continued to share and apply learning from her Fellowship on improving palliative care for people living with complex mental health conditions.
She co-authored an editorial in Palliative Medicine setting out a research agenda for the field, and published blogs with Equally Well UK, End-of-Life Essentials in Australia, and MAIN Exchange exploring how her findings could inform practice.
She also published Rewilding Healthcare: Islands of Care in Seas of Relationship with the Relationships Project, exploring the importance of trust, solidarity, and human relationships in caring for people living with serious illness, alongside a co-created comic illustrating these ideas.
Sarah also presented her work across a range of clinical, research, and professional settings, including Marie Curie, the Dorothy House Conference, the Michael Sobell Harlington Hospice Conference, and the Bristol Palliative and End of Life Care Group.
Alongside clinical colleagues, she has begun implementing recommendations from her report locally, with this work presented at the Royal College of Psychiatrists Liaison Psychiatry Conference and the Wolfson Palliative Care Research Centre, where their poster won first prize.
