Save the Date - National Palliative Care Week 2025

For thirty years, National Palliative Care Week has been the nation’s largest annual discussion about ‘matters of life and death’.

Each year, Palliative Care Australia, our network of members, health and aged care services, and community groups around the country have been the backbone of  local events and awareness raising activities that have allowed Australians to connect with the palliative care community and consider what is important to them at the end of life.

In 2025, National Palliative Care Week will run from Sunday, 11 May until Saturday, 17 May.

We know that many people and organisations are already thinking about events and how they will take part in what will be the thirtieth year of National Palliative Care Week. We can’t wait to see what you do and support your work.

In the meantime, please mark the dates on your calendar and if you haven’t already, subscribe to PCA’s fortnightly eNewsletter for updates, sign up HERE.

Thank you for your interest and support.
