What is a Death Café?
At a Death Café people, often strangers, gather to drink tea, eat cake and discuss death.
The objective of a Death Café is to help people make the most of their finite lives. Individuals can discuss their understanding, thoughts, dreams, fears, and all other areas of death and dying at these events.
With the subject of death remaining taboo, the thought of stepping into such an environment can feel somewhat uncomfortable and intimidating. In fact, several past attendees shared common stories of previously not being allowed to talk about death with their families for fear it would bring it upon them.
However, the warm and welcoming atmosphere (not to mention the delicious snacks) immediately eased people’s fears. “It’s not a Death Café without laughs” was one of the truest statements at a previous café.
