Viking Ha! contains a tale they missed out of the famous Viking sagas.

A tale of true friendship and growing into becoming your real self.

A tale of standing up for each other.

A tale of the lesser-known minor deities of Norse mythology.

A tale of Vikings & Dragons (NB no dragons will be trained in this production).

A tale of odd socks, bad puns and all the usual pantomime silliness.

Release your inner Viking. Release your inner Dragon. Release your laughter.

Come and have some fun – you deserve it.

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.
Register your space here: www.eventbrite.co.nz...
