THE AUSTRALASIAN DIVISION OF THE BRITISH INSTITUTE OF EMBALMERS

Welcome to the British Institute of Embalmers Australasian Division

As one year wraps up and a new one begins, the board of the BIE Australasian division wishes every one of you a happy and prosperous 2024.

This year we celebrate our 60th anniversary as a division, and it begins with our first event of the year, our annual conference and AGM, February 2nd – 4th in Melbourne. We are hoping to have as many of you as possible attend this event. It will be a great way to kick off the year, with educational sessions and the opportunity to catch up with members from all over the division.

Your board has been working to organise an interesting and informative conference line up which you can see in the following pages. Please register and book your accommodation. We look forward to beginning our 60th year with you.

Message from The Australasian Divisional Chairperson

Embalmers have a tremendous responsibility to those whom we serve, our outcomes depend on how we perform our duties. It is a privilege that we are trusted by the family to look after their loved ones.

As the staff in our University always say, “Always act as if the family is present”.

We must always remember the community and family with whom we serve…
