The Lasting Words project allows people who are approaching the end of their life to have their stories, thoughts and special memories captured through our storytellers.
Often this is very beneficial to those at the end of life and the ‘story’ can provide family and loved ones with a lasting and cherished memento.
If you are interested in getting involved with this project, the next Lasting Words online information session will be on:
Monday 18 August 2025, 7pm via Zoom.
To register, please email: volunteers@lastingwords.com.au
This session is designed to provide people with some preliminary information about volunteering with Lasting Words and training program requirements.
If you wish to proceed with volunteering at Lasting Words following this session, you will be required to attend an in-person training workshop on Saturday 23 August, from 9.30am to 4.30pm in Shenton Park.
