A conversation that you’d probably rather not talk about

Waters Funerals

How do you cope when someone close is diagnosed terminally ill? What do you say or do? We know it’s not easy. Most people want to be treated as normally as possible, without always focusing on the illness.

So, let your loved one tell you what they want.

Let them guide you. And never underestimate the value of your presence. Lingering terminal illnesses are increasingly common, and challenging for families.

We know. That’s why we’re here to make your journey a little easier. Call us 7 days.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
