Black Raven Marketplace Death Cafe

WHY It is my #1 goal to normalize conversations around death & dying because it is something that we all have in common as humans. We each have so much to offer in this conversation by sharing our different cultural, religious & spiritual backgrounds and beliefs. WHAT At a Death Cafe people, often strangers, gather to eat cake, drink tea and discuss death. Our objective is 'to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives'. A Death Cafe is a group directed discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session. \Our Death Cafes are always offered: \- On a not for profit basis \- In an accessible\, respectful and confidential space \- With no intention of leading people to any conclusion\, product or course of action Housekeeping: Complete our newest Registration form here: RSVP Now!
