Central Branch

Meeting Room 2

Death Café aims to encourage conversation, in order to help people face death and to make the most of their (finite) lives.

Join Siobhan Skehan for Death Café, where open and unstructured discussions about death take place.

This gathering is not about grief support or counselling but rather a space for sharing thoughts and experiences on mortality without any predetermined agenda or objectives. Death Café is non-profit, non-denominational, and does not aim to guide participants towards any specific beliefs or actions. It's an opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations in a relaxed and inclusive setting.

While donations to cover refreshments are welcome, they are not mandatory.
