A café space for those with big questions about death, dying and funerals. Refreshment's provided, a donation towards cost is welcome.
What is it?
It’s not easy to think about your own funeral. Talking about death, dying and funerals raises big questions that we need to face at some point, but it’s hard to talk to family and friends.
The Church of England has been helping people think about these questions for centuries. GraveTalk is a café space, where people can talk about these big questions. The conversation is helped along by GraveTalk conversation cards – 52 questions covering five key areas. Life, Death, Society, Funerals and Grief. They vary from “What is your greatest achievement?” to “What does it mean to have a ‘good death’?”
What happens?
People arriving will be welcomed by the person running the event and then invited to sit at tables with three or four others. The GraveTalk cards will be on the tables, and each group picks a question and uses it to start a conversation. It doesn’t matter if you only use one question, or work through all of them! The purpose is to talk and listen.
Light refreshments are offered throughout the event, which lasts about an hour, or longer if needed.
