About this Death Cafe
Death is generally considered a taboo subject in Western culture. Our objective is to increase awareness of death and explore how this may enhance our everyday well-being.
Due to the situation with Covid-19 this Death Cafe will be held online using www.zoom.us
Please email vkkeen@hotmail.co.uk and we can send you login details.
U NEED
TO DO TO SET UP ZOOM TO JOIN
Follow this simple step by step guide:
* Zoom is very user friendly and we will all work together to help each other with this alternative Death Cafe; so if you are not computer savvy, as long as you can get into the chat do not be nervous and think it isn't for you. Have a go we really want to see you.*
1) Download the Zoom app to your mobile phone or sign up at www.zoom.us on you computer; this is free.
- If you download on your computer it is better as you can see everyone who is there at the same time.
- On your phone you just see the person who is talking which still works but if you have the choice I would go the computer route as long as you have a camera and microphone on your computer, which most do.
2) Prior to the meeting please make sure your settings are all set to enable video and audio.
3) Email vkkeen@hotmail.co.uk to get the login details in advance.
3) Very Important - Make a drink and grab a snack of your choice.
4) Please be comfortable that this gorup is a secure, safe space.
Death Cafe's are discussion groups rather than grief support or counselling sessions.
