Tender Journeys
Mission

At Tender Journeys, we aim to provide compassionate, personalized support for those facing end-of-life transitions or life-changing diagnoses. We understand that death, dying, and illness are deeply personal experiences, and no two journeys are the same.

Our goal is to walk alongside you with empathy, understanding, and the unwavering belief that everyone deserves dignity, choice, and peace—no matter where they are in their journey.

Meet Claire

I started Tender Journeys to continue working in areas I am deeply passionate about. I am a cancer survivor and an end-of-life doula, as well as a mum to four boys—one of whom lives with profound disability—and a proud Mimi to my two beautiful grandchildren, aged five and three.

 

In 2009, I lost my mum to cancer. She was an incredibly strong woman who had overcome so much adversity in her life. She approached her death with wisdom and courage, qualities that continue to inspire me. 

Our Services

We understand that planning for the end of life is deeply personal. Many individuals want to take control of their journey—choosing where they spend their final days, how they are cared for, and ensuring their loved ones are not left with overwhelming decisions.
