We have a few spaces left for this course on Wednesday.

This course is primarily aimed at people who find themselves supporting & caring for people with serious illness & approaching end of life or those anticipating this situation.

What is the Better Endings Project?

Many people want to die at home, yet in New Zealand most die in institutions like hospitals and nursing homes. The Better Endings Project helps to educate the community about the basics of caring for dying people.

What does Nelson Tasman Hospice offer?

This simple course aims to create awareness and discussion on topics related to death and dying. The facilitators will aim to give practical tips on how you can provide comfort to someone who is dying, and what you can do to plan for your own and your family's future. It is an interactive course for up to 20 participants.

Participants will learn:

- What normal dying looks like
- How compassionate communities can improve care of dying
- Why end of life planning is important and what resources are available
- Simple measures to provide comfort at end of life
- About the sanctity of the last hours/days of life and how to cope and support others after death

This course is free but registrations are essential: www.eventbrite.co.nz...

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
