Description: Join us at a Death Café the first Thursday of every month 12–1:30 pm at Women’s Council House, 989 Young Avenue in Halifax

̈ The objective of a Death Café is to “increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their ‘finite’ lives.”
̈ It is an open, unstructured, respectful space free of discrimination where we can express our views and bring our questions safely.
̈ It is not designed to lead anyone to conclusions about life, death, or life after death, and it is not a place to market information, products or services.
̈ Those needing bereavement support or grief counseling will be helped to find appropriate support and resources.
̈ It is always held on a not-for-profit basis and includes food or drink, whether brought or bought.
̈ People are free to come and go, to talk or not talk as they feel in that moment. Be curious! Enjoy!
̈ Facilitated by Jacquie Bell, Dawn Carson & Deborah Luscomb (dfluscomb@gmail.com, 902.403.7590), Death Awareness Educators.
̈ Please feel free to stop at Uncommon Grounds for your treats on the way.
