10 Things to Know Before You Go Workshop

At Proveda, we believe it is important that people plan for death, just as much as they plan for birth.  We also believe that it requires an ‘all of family’ or ‘all of community’ approach as it often impacts more than one individual.

Our ’10 Things to Know Before You Go’ workshop can be attended by an individual, or alternatively, we can tailor one to run as a workplace activity. The aim is to empower you and/or organisations at large, to be both educated and socially responsible.

The workshop is a comprehensive 2-hour online session, that will help build your knowledge and provide useful resources to assist you to better understand and plan for either yourself, or a family member for end of life.  The workshop is very practical and provides an overview of various documents (eg Wills, Powers of Attorney, Advance Care Directives etc) that you may want to consider thinking about.  In addition, it provides helpful advice and outlines simple steps you can take toward initiating, what can often feel awkward, conversations with family members.

Previous participants have left feeling more empowered with knowledge, about navigating different aspects of the end of life system, and 80% of participants reported that they took direct action in end of life planning as a result of the workshop.

What Does the Workshop Cover?  

1. Immediate, practical end of life assistance. Writing a Will, Appointing an Enduring Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardian, Planning your funeral and burial.
