Matter of Life

Passion. Empathy. Listening.

Our gifts are found in our stories and our stories are our gifts to each other.

Matter of Life honours elders, retirees and people with serious illness – assisting them to tell, write and publish their life story.

Word by word, draw together the strands of your life into a handcrafted tapestry – your unique story.

Create an interwoven fabric of your life’s experiences – the people you’ve met, the places you’ve seen, and the things you’ve felt. Capture what is most important to you, in your words.

The essence of you.

Your story is a gift

Families, friends and coming generations enjoy reading their loved one’s life story, both now and into the future,  gaining:

• A deeper insight and understanding into their loved one’s life
• An appreciation of cultural histories of another era
• New opportunities to start conversations
• A permanent legacy treasured now and beyond this life

Our clients are often independent retirees, or people needing ‘assisted living’ (e.g. aged or palliative care).
