Death Cafe Lewisham

I have been to four different DCs (Bedford, Hitchin, Greenwich and Suurbiton) and been inspired to run one in Lewisham, London on 7th November (see picture)

I have already got the local press (South London Press)  very interested, but can you advise me about whom else I should tell about it. I have tried Dying Matters but they in my experience are very difficult to contact. Do you have a list of suggestions of those it might be useful to talk to?

For example, local Funeral Directors, beeavement counsellors, social services or Citizen's Advice Bureax. At one DC (I think it was Bedford) we had some front-of-house ladies from a Funeral Director sent by their manager, both of whom professed it to be most instructive and helpful to them. They knew beforehand about not advertising their services, but their experiences were very helpful to a number of us.

Any advice or information would be most welcome.

Francis
