The annual Death & Dying Expo took place on Saturday at Mullumbimby Civic Memorial Hall and was a great success, drawing a large, engaged crowd from across the Northern Rivers.
Organised by The Dying Well, the free community event offered talks, workshops, and panels on end-of-life care, home funerals, and grief work. There were 25 regional exhibitors providing valuable resources and connections to services available.
Organiser, Chi Chi Menendez, thanked the community for embracing this important day, which opened space for meaningful conversations about death, dying and grief.
‘For those wanting to continue the dialogue, the next round of death conversations will take place on Saturday, July 5 at The Paddock Project, from 10am till 12pm. All welcome’.
