2024 National Workshop Tour

Death Without Debt is touring the country 2024 with our funeral workshops. We are currently heading to Whanganui and Taranaki later this week and next (19th – 23rd October). The tour to the rest of the north island is postponed, sorry, due to family commitments. Hawke’s Bay, at the start of December, is still most probably on. We’ll keep you posted.

The workshops cover:

Funeral planning, wills, Enduring Power of Attorney, Advanced Care Plans, probate
After-death paperwork requirements and avoiding professional service fees
Care and transport of the body
When you need a coffin and when you don’t.
The pros and cons of cremation vs burial. Alternative and environmental technologies.
The politics and history of funerals
Community initiatives and collective action for funeral reform
And much more . . .
