Death Literacy

Death Doulas, also sometimes referred to as End of Life Doulas, offer a wide range of guidance and support to anyone wanting to plan ahead or for people who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness and their loved ones. From guiding people through advance care planning to providing practical, emotional and spiritual support at the end of a person’s life.

I’m pleased you asked. There’s actually some controversy around the idea of a ‘good ending’ or ‘good death’ and so I’ve written about it here.

Are you or someone you know thinking about getting your affairs in order? Planning in advance makes a difficult time, easier for your loved ones, helping to guide them in the many decisions that will need to be made upon your death.

Death Cafes take place in towns and cities around the world, providing a cosy place to eat cake and discuss death. These community-led events allow us to explore our beliefs, fears and perspectives around death, dying and grief.

A UK-based, virtual peer space for people who live and work close to death. A space for thoughtful conversation, resource sharing, collective reflection and connection with others who recognise the realities of engaging with death in their lives and work. A place where insight can be shared, ideas explored and experiences witnessed without pressure to solve or carry responsibility for one another; but a place where the weight does not have to be carried alone.
