The 2024 Wicking Trust national grant round aims to improve the experience of dying, death and grieving for older Australians and their families.

We hope to achieve the following outcomes:

  • Older Australians and their families/carers emotional experience and wellbeing at end of life is valued and improved.
  • Conversations and stories about everyday death and dying become common; and death is recognised as having value.
  • Caring and networked communities lead support for people dying, caring, and grieving. Communities reclaim dying and death.
  • The capacity of organisations working to include communities and influence systems is strengthened.
  • A more cohesive and inclusive dying, death and grieving system
