Forgotten Graves - Porirua Cemetery walk

Come along to hear about the history of Porirua Cemetery and the Porirua Hospital (Asylum) and how this has resulted in hundreds of unmarked graves.

Hear stories of some of those people that died while in the hospital care and hear about the project underway to remember these people with funding from the government.

This is a direct result of funding available from the Royal Inquiry into Abuse in Care.

Parking on roadside, tour will start at the Cemetery Chapel

Please wear good shoes and dress for the weather. The tour will happen rain or shine, we have a small chapel on site to host the talk if it is wet.
