Good news!

Late last night, the Rights of the Terminally Ill Bill passed the NT Parliament.

This marks an historic moment, as all Australians will now have the right to access Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD), if deemed eligible, wherever they live.

This means dignity, compassion and choice at the end-of-life are now recognised nationwide.

Congratulations to the Territorians for their advocacy, especially Marshall Perron and Judy Dent for their decades of unwavering commitment.

After more than two years holding our free monthly meetings in Narromine, we’ve decided to take a break.

It’s not goodbye – just ‘see you again sometime soon.’

Our volunteer coordinators run the group around work and family responsibilities, and as attendance numbers have decreased significantly this year, we have decided it’s time to take a break in Narromine.

But, we’re still around!

We continue to meet in Dubbo on the first Thursday of each month, and anyone from Narromine who wants to make the trek to town for that will be most welcome.

Any questions, feel free to reach out to Kaz or Shaz or message us through Facebook.

And don’t forget to keep having those important end-of-life conversations with your loved ones. They could be the most important discussions you’ve ever had.

NDAN Presents - How Mushrooms Are Changing the Way We Say Goodbye
We spend our lives trying to make a positive impact. Why should that stop when life ends?

In this inspiring talk, inventor Bob Hendrikx shares the unexpected story of how mushrooms inspired a new way of thinking about death. What began with a coffin grown from mycelium in just seven days has become a movement changing funerals and memorialisation around the world. Recognised by TIME as one of the Best Inventions, Loop is now active in 12 countries and has been chosen for more than 10,000 funerals and memorial moments. As Founder & CEO of Loop Biotech, Bob shares his mission to create products that help people say goodbye meaningfully while enriching the earth for future generations. Now, this movement is coming to Australia and New Zealand.

Bob Hendrikx is an award-winning inventor, architect and biodesigner pioneering a future where products are grown, not manufactured. From living homes and waste-eating objects to the world’s first mushroom coffin, his work explores how collaborating with nature can transform humans from a parasitic into a positive footprint species. As Founder & CEO of Loop Biotech, Bob turns science fiction into reality—creating regenerative products that enrich the planet instead of polluting it.

DATE - Friday 18-September 2026, 7PM - 8PM AEST
