Dying To Know Day – Australia’s biggest conversation about death

Nillumbik Shire Council has partnered with Banksia Palliative Care to host a Dying To Know Day event in August.

Dying to Know Day is an annual campaign that empowers all adult Australians to be strong self-advocates for their own personal planning.

No-one likes to talk about dying but forward planning means we can choose to die in a way that reflects ourselves and our values, while leaving our loved ones with a lot less to deal with.

At this event Banksia Palliative Care will present on topics such as:

• Options for future planning
• End-of-life care
• Support for families
• How to embrace death as a part of life

This event will empower you to take steps towards leaving a loving legacy for those you care about and who care for you and will inform you to have those tough conversations with family and loved ones.

Light refreshments provided.
