Cafes; building community and connection
A Death Café is a group directed discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session; however the environment is supportive to sharing difficult experiences. The aim is to bring people together to discuss this often taboo subject, and to extend these conversations outward in their social circles. Death is a part of life and dealing with that reality can be a truly liberating experience. Death Cafés are volunteer run and are always free of charge.
