Dying Matters Week
Nelson Marlborough
Dying Matters Week connects people across Aotearoa to start conversations in a safe space, learn from local experts and seek support for later life, end-of-life planning and to navigate grief or loss.
Join us from Monday 7th to Sunday 13th September 2026 at local libraries and other community spaces in the Nelson Marlborough region.
For more information about events, please contact Margaret McCallum (Motueka) and Amelia Toohey (Tākaka). To run events in other parts of Nelson Tasman, please check out our Event Toolkit.
