End of Life Planning

Making your own end of life arrangements provides peace of mind for you and for your family.

The Funeral Directors Association of NZ (FDANZ) has helpful resources available to help you make informed decisions. Designed to help you preplan your own funeral, there’s a wealth of practical information to help you plan your funeral, outline your preferences, and indicate which people and organisations should be notified of your death. Planning in advance can ease the burden on loved ones, help ensure that your wishes are respected, and allows you to make informed decisions about your funeral.

Watch the inspirational short film The Shoe Box about how end of life planning can support loved ones after someone dies, starring Annie Whittle and Kate Harcourt.
