Death Cafe

Death Café is a world-wide social franchise which invites people, often strangers, to gather to eat cake, drink tea, and discuss death.

There’ll be no agenda, objectives or themes - simply a group-directed discussion with a view to increasing awareness of death in order to help people make the most of their (finite) lives. The group is convened for discussion rather than grief support or counselling.

Presented by the School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion as part of Arts & Science Festival 2016, a week-long celebration of ideas, research and collaboration across campus.
