Being and nothingness

Nothingness lies coiled in the heart of being – like a worm.

– JEAN-PAUL SARTRE, ‘BEING AND NOTHINGNESS’

Death Cafes are led by the group. There is no theme nor agenda, though events can be aimed at particular groups or audiences to ensure inclusivity and accessibility. This means that no two Death Cafes are the same; the conversation follows a path led by the people in it. Our most recent event was online (our third online Faversham Death Cafe since Covid-19 hit). We were a group of 7 from across the world, joining from Portugal, Maine, Seattle, London and Kent. We talked about death and about non-existence ...

Frustratingly, we actually had to turn people away at our February Death Cafe as we just didn't have the space.  We are so fortunate to have the use of a cosy log cabin in a beautiful walled community garden in Faversham. However, it only holds around 15 people and we had nearly 20 people wanting to come to the Death Cafe (we've the option of a larger space at the Garden for our March Death Cafe).
 
Despite wariness from some people when putting posters up (that the events would be macabre or depressing), feedback from people who attended has been quite the contrary.  Although there has ...

In a cosy wooden cabin at the welcoming Abbey Physic Community Garden, with a plentiful supply of tea, delicious homemade vegan cake and an unexpected abundance of snacks, a group a strangers gathered and talked about death and dying. It was the first Faversham Death Café.

Some people had been to a Death Cafe before, some people knew what they wanted to talk about, some people weren’t sure what had brought them along and some people just wanted to listen.

Death Cafés happen across the world – it is a model developed by Jon Underwood and Sue Barsky Reid (www.deathcafe.com). They are free, always include ...
