Dying Matters Awareness is an invitation to engage in a conversation about death, dying, and grief.

Dying Matters is Hospice UK’s flagship campaign. Hundreds of events are taking place for Dying Matters Awareness this year. They include everything from Death Cafes, information stands and open days, to talks, music and craft workshops. For more information nationally visit the Dying Matters website.

Locally The Good Grief Collective are offering several events. The Good Grief Collective is a grouping of local practitioners - from legal, medical, pastoral, therapeutic and creative disciplines.

This year, we are offering a day event at Mudita; a Dying Well Surgery at Red Wing Gallery; and a Death Cafe at Roselidden.

When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes, they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
~ Chief Tecumseh
