Please note:
Bereavement Café is a space for open and confidential discussion. It is not a counselling or support service. If you are recently bereaved and are seeking professional support, please contact your GP or a relevant service for advice, such as Cruse Bereavement Care.
How to join?
The space is limited, so we suggest you save your spot ahead of time. Alternatively, you can just drop-in.
The event is free. Donations are welcome in support of running the Bereavement Café.
