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
