The Natural Death Centre Charity proudly presents
The NDC Death Café
2.30pm – 5.30pm
Sunday, 4th November
London NW2 6AA
(Willesden Green underground station)
A fundraising event celebrating the 21st birthday
of the Natural Death Centre
This Death Café will be held at the former office of the Natural Death
Centre and home of its founders, the late Nicholas Albery and Josefine
Speyer. It will be hosted by Josefine, along with Jon Underwood who
started Death Café in the UK in 2011, inspired by the ideas of Swiss
sociologist Bernard Crettaz.
Come and join us for a free flowing conversation around the topic of
death. Whilst sitting comfortably in a relaxed setting, drink tea and eat
delicious cake or sandwiches and enjoy an open, respectful and
confidential space for discussion, free of discrimination where people can
express their views safely.
To participate, please email a note to: josefine@josefinespeyer.com with
your name and phone number, how you heard about the event and any
special dietary requirements. She’ll send you an email to confirm your
place. Thanks!
The Natural Death Centre charity relies entirely
on donations and book sales. Your donation will go
towards paying for the free helpline and the day-today
running of the charity. Copies of the new edition
of the Natural Death Handbook will be on sale.

Now, will the door be open for the likes of me?

judging from a very recent post by Charles, it may be appropriate for you to ‘identify yourself’

Simon, come on down. You don’t mind being checked at the door for explosives? nothing personal.
I am so looking forward to the Death Cafe and lots of riveting conversation. Though there will be a mixture of topics up for discussion brought by those attending, I am anticipating home funerals will be one of them. The event is an ideal opportunity to meet people face to face.
Congratulations to Jon Underwood and team at Death Cafe for hitting their first birthday and we wish many more to come.
