Small Talks Whanganui

Hospice Whanganui was honoured to be the chosen charity partner for the recent Small Talks Whanganui event, held at Heritage House earlier this month. The evening brought together local speakers, community supporters, sponsors, volunteers, and attendees for a night filled with big ideas, laughter, storytelling, and connection – all while raising funds to support hospice care across our region. Thanks
