Here's my understanding of the distinction. A bereavement support group is where people share their loss, they have bereavement in common and its the topic and the reason for the group.
Death Cafe is a larger and more free ranging, covering death and dying and pretty much anything that comes up around those topics. People may talk about loss, bereavement, mourning, but Death Cafe doesn't deal solely or in common with it

Hi,

Thanks for your mail. I think the division is that we clearly say that Death Cafes are not a bereavement group and this creates a different type of event. As yet I've never had a Death Cafe that felt like a bereavement group.
