Dying to Know about Dying Matters?
Thursday 19th February 2026, 1pm - 4pm at Nelson Tasman Hospice
Talking about it more, worrying about it less. A workshop the general public can attend.
This forum is for the general public to attend and is not designed for Health Professionals.
Many people find it difficult to talk about dying, yet dying is an important stage of life and is inevitable.
We plan for the birth of a child, yet when it comes to the end of life, we don’t often want to think about it, or talk about it.
Having a plan outlines our care preferences for the future. Having an Advance Care Plan (ACP) that aligns with our beliefs and values, is a gift that we can give to our family / whānau.
Come along to our workshop and find out more about dying matters, how an ACP can benefit you and your family/whānau and what to expect at the end of life.
We will explore:
– Why is it hard to talk about death and dying?
– What to expect when someone is dying
– Supports available
– Advance care planning processes
This is a free workshop, however space is limited so registration is essential.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
