Early engagement with hospice brings more comfort, less crisis — for patients and the people who love them.

As New Zealand’s population ages, the number of people dying each year will rise rapidly. With hospices already experiencing funding shortages, who will care for us at the end of our lives?

Our staff have had a blast visiting the stores, seeing the beautiful messages and chatting with the staff about the Mercy Hospice mahi. And we couldn't have rallied them as easily without the help of the wonderful students at St. Mary's college who donated home made sweet treats to help ensure the Farmers staff were energised and ready to spread the word! If you haven't already, go into your nearest Farmers, give a donation and add your message to the tree!

Legacy Cloth Making Workshop
27 November 2025 • Mercy Hospice

Ake Ake Shrouds guided a beautiful half-day workshop bringing together Manaaki patients, their whānau, Honohono Tātou Katoa Community members, local creatives and those working in health and wellbeing. Participants used leaves, flowers and seeds to design their own naturally dyed cloths, made from fabrics sourced and prepared by our Mercy Op Shop volunteers.

The session was a calm, reflective space to learn, create, and share meaningful conversations about life, death and legacy.

A heartfelt thank you to Ake Ake Shrouds (akeakeshrouds.co.nz), our volunteers and everyone who joined us.
