Death Cafe Kemptville
A write up of Kemptville Death Cafe
We held our first Death Cafe yesterday, renting space from a local coffee house. We had a great turn out - over 20 people! Attendees were a mix of hospice volunteers, people who had heard about the event from friends and those who spotted our ads.
We broke into groups of 4 - 7 people. I had debated switching the groups up at the 1 hour mark, but every table seemed to have their conversation flowing easily, and I decided to let the original groups continue for the duration of the 2 hour event.
Preparing for the event, I was a bit nervous about not having topics to discuss, but found that the conversation flowed easily without an agenda.
Overall was a fantastic event - the conversation went places I did not expect, and the participants brought a wealth of experiences.
