SUMMARY:Grief Australia workshop | Placing our footsteps beside and together
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe presentation will be delivered as a Storytelling as Healing and as Education\, I am hoping this approach invites practitioners into an experience that data and theory cannot convey. Storytelling plays a dual role in palliative care\, trauma and grief as both healer and educator. It helps bereaved people make sense of loss by giving shape to overwhelming emotions\, reducing isolation through shared connection\, and supporting an ongoing bond with the deceased through memory\, meaning\, and place. At the same time\, grief stories teach others what mourning really looks like\, often nonlinear and culturally shaped\, making hidden or disenfranchised grief more visible\, improving “grief literacy\,” and modelling how to listen with empathy rather than trying to fix or rush the palliative care and bereaved person’s experience. \nType: Live webinar via Zoom\nDate and Time: Thursday 23 April 2026\, 10:00am – 11:30am AEST\nPresenter: Kathryn Hooper\nLevel: Introductory and Intermediate\nAudience: Professionals and the general public.\nPrice: Members $50 and Non-Members $75\nSpecial discounts may be available for group bookings and students. To inquire about discounts or make a booking\, please contact education@grief.org.au

SUMMARY:Grief Centre NZ webinar | Effective strategies for supporting bereaved individuals living with dementia

Our content is applicable to a wide variety of professions including counsellors\, social workers\, teachers\, emergency response teams\, medical\, corrections\, mental health\, hospice\, volunteers\, caregivers and more. \nOverview\nProfessionals supporting people living with dementia are deeply familiar with the emotional\, cognitive\, and behavioural challenges that arise in day-to-day care. Yet when loss and grief enter the picture\, these familiar challenges can become more complex and harder to interpret. Dementia can change how a person understands\, remembers\, and expresses their grief—sometimes in subtle ways\, sometimes in ways that are distressing or confusing for those around them. \nTuesday 31st March 1:00pm – 3:00pm NZDT | 11 am to 1 pm AEDT \nLive Webinar Participant NZ$89.25 +GST
