Humanist Society Scotland - Online Death Cafe
Created: 5/2/2024As part of Demystifying Death Week (06-12 May), Humanist Society Scotland have arranged an online death cafe.
At a Death Cafe people drink tea, eat cake and discuss death. Their aim is to increase awareness of death to help people make the most of their (finite) lives. Join the online conversation about death, dying, and bereavement, and help to reclaim death as part of life.
Whether you are newly bereaved, grieving for someone who died a long time ago or are just curious to see what a death cafe is like you are very welcome.
This is an opportunity to break the taboo around talking about death. We can all benefit from being more comfortable having these conversations, so boil the kettle, raid the biscuit tin and join them online as they explore this universal experience together.
They aim to create an open, respectful and confidential space where people can express their views safely.
Please note that a death café is not a bereavement/grief support resource and they advise that you do not attend if you have been very recently bereaved and your grief feels very raw.
This event is free and open to the public.
