Death Cafe Facilitation
What is a Death Cafe?
Death Cafes provide a unique opportunity to talk openly and honestly about death in a safe and confidential environment. There are no agendas, no objectives, or themes; the conversation is simply led by the people in the group. There is always cake and something to drink. Discover more about Death Cafes here.If you would like to host a Death Cafe I can help:
- Facilitate your Death Cafe with, or for you;
- Train and support your staff so they have the confidence and skills to do this (see Workshop).
My experience of hosting and facilitating Death Cafes:
I am an experienced Death Cafe facilitator and, along with Alberta Gutteridge, host the North East London Death Cafe. I have also facilitated Death Cafes in partnership with Wellcome Collection and Willesden Jewish Cemetery and for the UCLH GP Training Programme.
