Death, Dying, End of Life Care Planning, and Grief

Things to do before I die Workshop

Aim of the workshop

This workshop raises awareness of the importance of thinking about and planning for the end of life.

It can be difficult doing this but we know that when people do plan, they feel more in control and less worried about the future.

It can also help those close to us know our wishes. This helps to minimise the risk of conflict between those who have to make decisions on our behalf.

It’s important that we all take time to think about and plan for the end of life.

This workshop will cover:

• What is planning for the end of life;
• Why we need to think about and plan for the end of life;
• How to put plans in place – Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, Advance Care Plan and Funeral Wishes; and

• How to discuss plans with those people important to us.
