What we do
• Facilitate education and awareness on the social and practical needs of people impacted by dying, death and bereavement.
• Create opportunities for conversation on matters relating to advanced illness, caregiving, dying, death and bereavement.
• Work in partnership with individuals and organisations to create supportive networks that reduce social isolation and loneliness.
Compassionate City Charter
“A compassionate city is a community that recognises that care for one another at times of crisis and loss is not simply a task solely for health and social services but is everyone’s responsibility.” Allan Kellehear
The ‘Compassionate City Charter’ is a guide to how towns, cities and communities can better respond to the social and practical needs of people affected by death, dying and bereavement.
We welcome all enquiries from individuals, groups and organisations in how they can get involved in making their community more compassionate.
Community Membership
We welcome groups, networks and organisations who want to improve community capacity to support those people affected by death, dying and bereavement. As members you will have access to the groups network, information and learning.
