Let's talk about death — openly and honestly

At Karuna we know that talking about death and grief can feel overwhelming. Especially for young people, who may not have experienced a loss before.

But while talking about death may seem intimidating, it is a conversation worth having.

Our 2025 Tax Appeal highlights the different stories of two incredible young people who have a close connection with palliative care, grief, and Karuna. Read their stories by clicking the link below.

Your support is a vital part of ensuring our team can remain on the road, providing care and talking about death, grief, and loss to those who need it most.
