Dying to Know Expo

Join us for the Dying to Know Expo, a free community event designed to encourage open conversations about death, dying, grief, funerals, end-of-life planning, and legacy.
This isn't a morbid event, it's one filled with knowledge, connection, and empowerment. By understanding our choices and having conversations before a crisis, we can reduce fear, support our loved ones, and make informed decisions that reflect our values.
What to expect
Throughout the day you'll hear from experienced speakers and have the opportunity to meet local organisations and professionals who support our community through end-of-life care.
Topics include:
🌿 Sustainable and affordable funerals
🌿 Meet a Mortician – a rare behind-the-scenes look at mortuary care
🌿 Death Doulas and the support they provide
🌿 Planning a unique and meaningful ceremony
🌿 Grief and bereavement support
🌿 Advance care planning and legacy
🌿 Community information stalls and resources
There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions, connect with exhibitors, and explore the many options available for end-of-life care.
☕ Free tea, coffee, and morning tea will be available throughout the day.
Whether you're planning ahead, supporting a loved one, working in the caring professions, or simply curious to learn more, everyone is welcome.

Let's create a community where conversations about death are as natural as conversations about birth, because planning ahead is one of the greatest gifts we can leave those we love.
