About this Death Cafe

A Death Cafe is a group directed discussion on all aspects of death, dying and living with no agenda, biases or themes. It is a discussion group that provides opportunity to share thoughts feelings, questions and concerns and to bring an often-taboo topic into the light.  A Death Cafe is not a grief support or counseling sessions. “The objective is 'to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives'.”
