Shrouding & Natural Burial

Explore the ritual and the practicalities of using funeral shrouds in this hands-on, intuitive workshop.

This is for anyone interested in natural burials, death care, and the transformative role of shrouding in healing grief and honouring life.

We’ll briefly look at historical and cultural perspectives, reasons for choosing to use a shroud, and how shroud-only funerals (without a coffin) align with NZ burial and cremation regulations.

Everyone will then have the opportunity to experience wrapping each other in shrouds. Please wear comfortable clothing.

This is a free event. Many venues have limited spaces, so please book early to secure your spot here: https://gowithgrace.nz/dyingmatters/northland-events/whangarei/
