Funerals and Sorry Business
Funerals and Sorry Business are culturally important to our mob.
It’s very important to make sure that our Elders and other sick people in our communities are kept safe.
Guidelines for caring for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people through death and dying.
If there are restrictions in place on the number of funeral attendees, talk to your mob about different ways to hold the service such as using video and live streaming from your phone.
