Northland Dying Matters Week Events in Whangārei & Mangawhai

Dying Matters Week Northland

Go With Grace brought Dying Matters Week back to Whangārei in 2025 in addition to Sherie Sullivan’s programme of events in Mangawhai.

This week connects people across Aotearoa to start conversations in a safe space, learn from local experts and seek support to get affairs in order and navigate grief or loss.

The programme included: hands-on workshops and presentations from experts in end-of-life, grief and death-care, resources and information from local businesses, curated collections of books on grief and dying, online events and podcasts, art and theatre, poetry and storytelling, Death Cafes and panel discussions.
