We're super excited about our full day in-person conference 'Let's talk about grief 2024'. It's happening on Friday 17 May at the Novotel Auckland, Ellerslie!
A great opportunity for professionals working alongside change, loss and grief, or those in the community with a strong interest to be inspired, challenged, supported and to learn, share and connect. In talking and learning more about grief, we aim to advance the vision of a grief-literate society in Aotearoa and beyond.
- Full conference details and programme are here.
- Registration opens at 8am, closing at 8.35am with all delegates to be seated for an 8.45am start.
- All ticket payments are by credit card payment only.
