As an End of Life Doula, with a registered nursing background, Jacqui recognises that for the person who is dying, there is a genuine need to provide spiritual & emotional support which allows an avenue for expressing 'what is most important' to that person; what are their priorities, their values and what choices do they wish to make during the transitions that occur at the end of life. And for the dying person's loved ones, Jacqui's calming presence ensures that they feel that they are 'not walking this journey alone'. Jacqui is also passionate about building Compassionate Communities and facilitates regular Death Cafes and end of life presentations which engage local communities to promote engagement and discussions about death and dying - normalising that death is part of life. And as a Funeral Celebrant, Jacqui co-crafts highly personalised funerals and ceremonies that capture the essence of the person who has died; and provides an avenue for expression of grief for the family and friends
