- Dying To Know Day

As part of the day’s events, we invite you to:
Book a spot on one of two guided Ferntree Gully cemetery tours (10.30am or 2.15pm), with Karin Orpen, OAM, Secretary of the Knox Historical Society and former Mayor, to explore local history and reflect on life’s big questions. You must book for the talk to be eligible to attend the tour.
Join the Eastern Community Legal Centre (ECLC) for an Estate Planning session. Learn the essentials of wills, powers of attorney, and how to make sure your wishes are known and respected. Let’s take the fear out of the conversation and replace it with knowledge, care, and connection.
10.30am – 11.30am: Cemetery tour 1
12.00pm – 12.30pm: Light lunch
12.45pm – 1.45pm: Estate Planning presentation
2.15pm – 3.15pm: Cemetery tour 2
Note: Places are limited and bookings are essential. This tour involves walking through
a cemetery on uneven terrain. It is not suitable for individuals who use mobility aids or
have difficulty walking.
If you have any access questions please contact the office.
