- **Event Description**: Lightning Talks have become a bit of a sensation in Gizzy, offering a glimpse into the inspiring people and kaupapa shaping our community. Get ready for a night of quick-fire, short presentations that’ll leave you buzzing with ideas and maybe a few you didn’t see coming.

This time round, we’re tackling the topic everyone tiptoes around at dinner parties: death and dying. (Don’t worry, no one’s making you talk about your own mortality over pizza — unless you want to.)

From death practices across different cultures, to what your options actually are here in Tairāwhiti, to a lineup of speakers all connected — in their own unique way — to this big, universal, and surprisingly fascinating topic, it’s shaping up to be a night that’s thoughtful, a little unexpected, and honestly, a good time.

Come curious. Leave lighter. Expect the unexpected as our brilliant speakers take to the floor to discuss something connected to this big topic of death.

This event is part of a series hosted across the country for Dying Matters Week. These events create a range of ways for you to connect with and explore this important topic. For more events, check out https://gowithgrace.nz/dyingmatters/.
