An easy workshop on a difficult topic: Dying to Know Day

The inaugural Living and Dying: Let’s Talk workshop in Portarlington on Thursday 8 August aims to answer these and many other questions about death, dying and bereavement. Presented by the Geelong Cemeteries Trust as part of this year’s Dying to Know Day, the free workshop focuses on encouraging people to openly discuss their death wishes and to learn more about local care and support services. The event will incorporate networking and expo stands, lunch, workshops, meditation and opportunities to ask questions about death and grief in a relaxed atmosphere over a coffee, tea or something stronger.
