Who should attend?

In the Death Cafe there are no hierarchies. We all meet simply as people who are going to die.

Why attend?

A panel discussion on dealing with death, with speakers from End of Life Doula UK, the British Geriatric Society, the Royal College of Pathologists and the Royal College of Nursing. To help us all be more open about the subject, the panel will be followed by a death café: tea, cake and conversations about death. The Death Café will be a facilitated discussion, creating a safe atmosphere to talk about death and dying. In the Death Cafe there are no hierarchies. We all meet simply as people who are going to die.
