Join Pembrokeshire’s Paul Sartori Foundation for a series of engaging events during Dying Matters Week 2025, promoting essential end-of-life conversations.

The week starts with a concert at St Mary’s Church, Haverfordwest, on Monday, May 5, 1pm. Featuring performances by the Paul Sartori Community Choir, it will serve as a platform to highlight the importance of end-of-life conversations.

On Thursday, May 8, 10am-2.30pm, the Foundation will host an Information and Activities Day at The Third Place in Milford Haven. Designed to educate individuals to make informed decisions about their end-of-life care, this event, held in conjunction with PAVS and Pembrokeshire County Council, will also include a guided walk and a craft area for creative expression.

On Friday, May 9, the charity will host the Dead Good Quiz, a fun and competitive event in the relaxed setting of Yr Hen Ysgol, Dinas Cross. Participants can attend individually or as part of a team, enjoying a fun-filled quiz night that combines entertainment with meaningful discussion, helping to make end-of-life conversations more accessible and less daunting for the community.

These events have been instigated by the Future Care Planning department at Paul Sartori. Mandy Jones works on the project in the community: “Having a future care plan in place means that you can take charge of what happens to you should you become seriously unwell and are unable to express your wishes. It also gives guidance to families and helps ease stress at a very difficult time. These community events aim to inform and empower people to have autonomy over their future health and wellbeing”.

Established in memory of Father Paul Sartori, The Paul Sartori Foundation offers sustainable services that promote quality end-of-life care, ensuring support for individuals in the comfort of their homes.
