Toowoomba Death Cafe

"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."

• Death Cafe is not a bereavement support or grief counselling setting. Death Cafe doesn't work for people who, for whatever reason, aren't able to discuss death comfortably and openly.

• Death Cafes aren't an opportunity to give people information about death and dying - regardless of how good or important it is. Rather we create time to discuss death without expectations.

This death cafe is inclusive and respectful of everyone. It has no religious affiliations and it is not a place to promote and/or recruit for religious organisations. Participants must ensure they are willing to respect every person's pronouns and identities.
