Advocacy Through Sharing Our Story

3 of the Little Haven “Family” spoke so beautifully at the Ignite Talk “Dying to Know” event held on the Sunshine Coast last night. Presentations were short, fast-paced talks to help grow the capacity of individuals and community groups to take action toward end of life planning.

Nurses Carolyn Mandersloot, Amy Cadd and Carolyn’s daughter Indiana were wonderful representatives and advocates for Little Haven Palliative Care. Amy and Carolyn devote a lot of their time to community education and increasing understanding of issues of death and dying.

Lisa also collaborated with Gympie Women’s Health to develop a four week program entitled “Live, Love, Grieve” with guest speaker from Taylor Street Legal Service and Gympie Funerals.  The workshop was well-received and will be repeated in the near future.
