Virtual Death Café

A death cafe is an intimate peer-led space where people can come and share around any aspect of death and dying in a group setting. The space is facilitated with gentle space-holding that encourages participation (no matter how small) by all and does not shy away from awkward silences. We are not here to fix anyone’s grief but to make space to hold it for a short while with you.
