About this event

A Death Cafe is an opportunity to come together for an open discussion about the end of life, death, bereavement and grief.

The aim is to increase our awareness of death in order to help us make the most of our finite lives. They are life-affirming conversations in a welcoming setting.

After the success of the Summer Solstice Death Cafe I am making this a monthly event for the rest of 2025, and I'm very grateful to be working with Earthlings - the Healing Cafe in Newcastle upon Tyne who have offered their space.

As Earthlings are kindly giving us the room for free, if you are able to buy a drink or some food during your visit to help make this sustainable, that would be great but there is no pressure.

I am an End of Life Doula and I will be making sure everyone who comes along feels welcome and is able to join in as much or as little as they want to.

Organized by

Hello I’m Karen (she/her) and I work in the North East of England.

My work involves me offering support to people of all ages from different backgrounds who may be wanting to do some thinking about the end of life, those who are approaching the end of their life, those who are bereaved and people experiencing grief.

Most of my face to face work is in Sunderland, Gateshead, South Tyneside and County Durham and I also work online with people.
