A Death Café is a gathering of people, often strangers, who will drink tea, have a snack and discuss death together. The aim is to increase the awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their lives. Discussions will be in small groups with no agenda, no objectives and no particular theme. Prepare to hear and tell stories. This is not a grief support or counselling session. The facilitator for this Death Café is Jacqueline Gignac.
Death Cafes are a global movement. To learn more, visit the Death Café website.
