Memorials & Celebrations Of Life
A personal service that honours the life, character and relationships of someone who has died.
Kathie works with families to create a ceremony that reflects the person being remembered and the wishes of those gathering.
This Can Include:
​Listening to family memories and stories
• Developing the ceremony’s structure and wording
• Helping select readings, music and personal contributions
• Preparing and leading the service
Documentary Screenings & Converrsations
Films can open conversations that are difficult to begin. GIDII’s documentaries bring lived experience and careful research together to explore care, loss and social issues. Screenings offer workplaces and communities an opportunity to listen, reflect and consider how they support others.
​
Shattered is a four-part documentary series exploring what happens after workplace injury changes a life. Screening and licensing enquiries are managed through the Shattered website.
Grief & Loss Education
Helping workplaces and communities understand grief and feel more confident supporting someone experiencing loss. Sessions explore grief following death, illness, injury and significant life changes. They create space to consider what to say, how to listen and what practical support can look like.
Enquiries are welcome for talks, workshops and facilitated discussions.
Learning Through Film & Story
Stories help us recognise experiences beyond our own. Facilitated conversations use documentary and reflection to explore loss, identity, belonging and care. They invite participants to connect what they have seen with everyday life in their families, workplaces and communities.
