Community Events

The North Shore Hospice & Palliative Project hosts several events and fundraisers for palliative patients and their families and our North Shore community.

“My dear friend urged me to attend “Honour a Life” and I am so glad that she did… It was a beautiful meaningful service and gathering of community support that I really needed. I was able to talk to my husband and all those whom I have loved and lost, and it was a safe place for me to do so. I was able to honour him discreetly, in public.

I was surprised the comfort the evening gave to me, it was like a warm shawl on a chilly evening… For the next few weeks I went for walks by the Honour a Life Memorial Tree and would talk to him.

Thank you to North Shore Hospice Society for Honour a Life service, a true community service for all, which helps those of us whom need support after the death of our deeply beloveds.”

Guests are invited to hang personal tributes on the Honour a Life Memorial Tree that remains standing and decorated until after the New Year. Honour a Life has become a tradition on the North Shore with many families using the opportunity to mark the passing of a loved one on an annual basis.
