Partnership Opportunities
We believe meaningful impact is created through collaboration. We work alongside businesses, organisations, and community partners across Aotearoa to spark conversations about death, dying, and grief—and to ensure people have access to compassionate, trustworthy information and support when they need it most.
Our partnerships range from sponsorship of national events like Dying Matters Week, to co-created website content, educational resources, and custom marketing campaigns that align with your mission and values. On this page, you’ll find case studies and testimonials from organisations we’ve partnered with—showcasing what’s possible when we work together to make a difference.
Partner Spotlight:
End of Life Doula Alliance Aotearoa (ELDAA)
Our partnership with the End of Life Doula Alliance Aotearoa is a powerful example of how collaboration can uplift communities, expand access to support, and deepen public understanding of compassionate end-of-life care in New Zealand.
Together, we’ve created a range of initiatives that highlight the essential role of end-of-life doulas and strengthen the visibility of this growing professional field.
Creating Trusted Educational Content
To help the public understand who doulas are and how they support individuals and families, we co-developed a dedicated webpage about end-of-life doulas. This resource offers clear, accessible information about the profession, the services doulas provide, and the unique support they bring during dying, death, and grief.
A National Partnership for Dying Matters Week
ELDAA partnered with us as a key collaborator for Dying Matters Week, contributing their expertise, presence, and energy to a nationwide programme designed to normalise conversations about death and dying.
Go With Grace propelled ‘Dying Matters Week’, from being just a few events dotted across the motu, to over 250 events in September 2025. A massive achievement. Dying Matters Week comprises events of all kinds – documentaries, workshops, presentations on all things dying and death, death cafes, etc. – and these events are facilitated by Doulas, Hospices, Funeral directors, Celebrants and others working in this space. Go With Grace are the key coordinators and facilitators bringing all the events together, promoting them and financing and organising most of the PR behind them. Without their mahi, none of these events would have been as successful as they were. I do believe that through this work, Go With Grace is instrumental in changing societal attitudes towards dying and death.

Henderson Reeves Lawyers
Our partnership with Henderson Reeves Lawyers helps New Zealanders access clear, practical information about the legal aspects of death and end-of-life planning. Together, we’ve developed a range of accessible website content covering wills, powers of attorney, estate planning, and what happens legally when someone dies—all written in straightforward, compassionate language to support individuals and families making important decisions.
Dying Matters Week Sponsorship
Henderson Reeves also holds a premium business listing in the Go With Grace directory, ensuring people can easily find experienced legal support when planning ahead or navigating an estate. Their involvement as a sponsor of Dying Matters Week further expanded their impact, with their team delivering Legal Talks at events in Northland and helping bring essential legal knowledge into community conversations.
The Legal Matters Video Series
As part of our collaboration, we also produced the Legal Matters video series, recorded and hosted by Go With Grace. This upcoming series offers clear explanations of key legal documents and processes, reflecting Henderson Reeves’ commitment to education and informed decision-making. Together, we’re making legal guidance more approachable, more visible, and more available for communities across Aotearoa. Watch video series…

The Eldernet Group
Eldernet holds a premium business listing in the Go With Grace directory, ensuring people can easily find their services and resources when navigating aged care, retirement living, or future planning.
As a Dying Matters Week sponsor, Eldernet contributed significantly to the week’s impact—hosting a well-received talk in Christchurch and distributing their trusted Where to From Here booklets at event venues across Aotearoa, helping attendees understand the practical pathways available as they or their loved ones age.
Guest Spot on the Go With Grace Podcast
For the very first episode of the Go With Grace podcast, Katy chatted to Esther Perriam from The Eldernet Group, where she shared insights into the challenges and opportunities facing older adults and their families in New Zealand today.
Sponsor of the Compassionate Communities Hui 2025
The Eldernet Group will served as a key sponsor of the Compassionate Communities Hui in May 2025, supporting national conversations about ageing, death, and community-led care.
Western society has become disconnected from dying. It’s seen as scary – a ‘taboo’ topic that we shouldn’t be talking about. Over the past two years, Go With Grace has played a vital role in undoing this. The resources they provide give people the words they may not have had before, and normalises conversations about dying that people are often too afraid to start themselves.
It was an honour to partner with them for the Compassionate Communities Hui and Dying Matters Week earlier this year, with both events proving just how committed Go With Grace is to fostering connections both within the sector and the wider public. Here at The Eldernet Group we are excited to see them continue to grow, and we look forward to supporting their kaupapa and help give New Zealanders peace of mind when it comes to preparing for the end of life.

Partner Spotlight:
North Haven Hospice
Our partnership with North Haven Hospice reflects our shared commitment to ensuring people across Aotearoa have access to compassionate, practical, and trustworthy information about palliative care. Together, we have co-hosted major events—including powerful sessions with renowned French psychologist and author Marie de Hennezel—as well as the Compassionate Communities Hui, helping bring international insight and local expertise into meaningful community conversations.
Dying Matter Week talks & videos
North Haven Hospice played a key role in Dying Matters Week, with hospice staff delivering talks on topics such as getting your ducks in a row, carer support, and what to expect when someone is approaching the end of life. Many of these talks are now available on the Go With Grace website as educational videos, offering ongoing guidance for families, carers, and professionals seeking reputable information.
Demystifying palliative care
We also collaborate closely on developing website content about palliative care, ensuring people can easily understand what palliative services offer, how care is delivered, and what to expect when someone is receiving hospice support. Through this partnership, we’re helping demystify palliative care and making it easier for individuals and families to feel informed, supported, and empowered during some of life’s most challenging moments.
Celebrating Go with Grace and the generous role it plays. In just two years, Go with Grace has become a treasure box of stories, resources and knowledge to help people prepare for death, care for the dying and live with grief and loss. Offering comfort, honesty and practical advice, Go with Grace shows real leadership in opening up kōrero that matter and stands as a trusted, compassionate guide when people need it most. – Hospice New Zealand
