Hospice Malta has proudly launched its annual fundraising campaign, Ħajja Sal-Aħħar, which will culminate in a 12-hour televised telethon on Sunday 6 July 2025, from 11am to 11pm across local television stations. This important initiative supports the organisation’s mission to provide free, high-quality palliative care to people with life-limiting illnesses.

As the need for Hospice Malta’s services continues to grow each year, the telethon is a vital part of ensuring the charity can continue offering care and support to thousands of patients and their families, completely free of charge. Funds raised will help sustain home-based care, in-patient services, psychological support and holistic therapies delivered by the Hospice team.

It formed part of a broader series of initiatives by the Parliamentary Secretariat aimed at exploring how digital platforms influence communication, mental health, and participation among young people.

Ms Buttigieg reflected on the importance of listening to young voices, “From Instagram to TikTok, Snapchat to Messenger this is the world many people now communicate through, with realities we might not always be fully aware of.”

The meeting emphasised the critical role of youth perspectives in shaping effective and balanced social media policies. The teenagers shared honest insights into their digital habits, including the pressure to maintain online presence, the benefits of online communities, and concerns about screen time and privacy.
