Sessions – October, November

Please come and listen to some very special Māori storytellers share wisdom from te Ao Māori that support all of us in times of sadness and loss.
The programme is facilitated by Vanessa Eldridge, Māori Liaison (Ngāti Kahungunu, Rongomaiwahine).
If somebody close to you has died, life has changed for you. The grief of bereavement may bring strong, unexpected and sometimes painful feelings. Grief is a normal, natural process of healing.
