AB  - The demand for palliative care has increased in high income countries as 
      mortality in older adults has decreased and life expectancy increased. In this 
      context, the priorities of palliative and end of life care (EoLC) have shifted in 
      Australia, reflected in policy frameworks, national guidelines, service systems 
      and funding models. However, aligning service systems and practice realities with 
      these policy aspirations has been problematic in Australia and elsewhere. The 
      current study investigates the recent implementation of a unique, community 
      palliative care (CPC) programme called Heidi's Have a Go (HHaG) in regional 
      Australia, which seemed to bridge the problematic divide between policy 
      aspirations and practice implementation. Qualitative research was undertaken to 
      examine the programme design and influence from the perspective of programme 
      staff and volunteers. The data generated compelling stories on staff and patient 
      experiences in its first 2 years, achieving service outcomes aligned with current 
      policy and national frameworks and privileging patient voices.
