For Dying Matters Awareness Week, we will lead a national conversation on social media about the importance of discussing funeral wishes with loved ones.
A selection of our patrons will be sharing their #FuneralWishes, and we will be asking social media followers, ‘What are your #FuneralWishes?’, to prompt more people to think carefully about what they want and feel comfortable to talk about death.
