About this Death Cafe

The event basically looks like this:

1. You turn up at the venue for 7pm

2. You have a coffee and a slice of cake if you want.

3. You get to meet the other people attending that evening.

4. You get to talk in a safe, cosy, relaxed environment about mortality, life, death... what ever floats your boat or interests you.

5. You leave... knowing you probably just made a few friends!!
