Dying to Know Day- Doula Connections Hunter Region

To get dead set is to prepare for the unique circumstances every person will face at the end of their life. By asking Australians to ‘get dead set’, the Dying to Know Day campaign invites us to overcome fears or discomfort around death and take action on end of life planning in a way that is right for them.

The Dying to Know campaign (which culminates on Dying to Know Day on 7 August) helps bridge this gap by improving death literacy and positivity in individuals, communities, healthcare workers and other professionals through local and community events. Death literacy is the knowledge, compassion and practical skills that enable supportive action and active decision- making around someone's end of life choices.
