Dying to Know Day is an annual campaign empowering Australians at all stages of life to live and die well. During August, everyone is encouraged to improve their knowledge around choice at end of life and discuss their wishes with people close to them.
Dying to Know Day seeks to reshape how Australians approach death, dying, and end-of-life planning. The 2022 campaign asks Australians to ‘get dead set’ by taking simple steps to plan for end-of-life.
Three ways Australians can ‘get dead set’:
- Capture your choices in writing. Like a will, substitute decision-maker and guidance on your social media or organ donation. These could be documents, or as simple as a text or scribble on a serviette to start.
- Have conversations with loved ones and others so they understand your wishes – and you understand theirs.
- Prepare your send-off. Share what you want it to look like so you can be celebrated and remembered in line with your wishes.
