What is a Death Café?
Death Cafes are welcoming community spaces where people gather to talk openly about death and dying over a cup of coffee. They aim to normalise conversations about death, remove the stigmas, and increase community understanding and awareness about end-of-life experiences. These conversations happen without judgement and without any agenda to change others’ minds. It’s simply a safe space to explore one of life’s most universal experiences through meaningful conversation.
Please note that this event is not a grief circle, group therapy, or counselling session. If you’re unsure whether this event is right for you at this time, please reach out to our team.
