Wooling Hill Memorial Estate, together with Chapter House Funerals and Macedon Ranges Family Law, is pleased to invite the Macedon Ranges community to an informative morning focused on estate planning, legacy conversations and modern approaches to pre-planning and remembrance.
Held at Wooling Hill Memorial Estate in New Gisborne, this welcoming community event has been designed to provide practical guidance and compassionate conversation around topics many families know are important, but often find difficult to discuss.
We are honoured to welcome Cr Kate Kendall, Mayor of Macedon Ranges Shire Council, who will provide opening remarks for the event.
