On Wednesday July 2nd, 2025 an enthusiastic group of people came together to dream up how to "bring death to life". Together, they envisioned a monthly, open, organic conversation session aimed at normalising talking about death and dying, and to provide information about related things. They discussed the importance of having a safe, informal space where death is acknowledged and where people can talk and learn about anything related to death and dying in an inclusive and responsive way. This won't be a counselling group, but rather an opportunity to build awareness and breaking open traditionally hard and isolating conversations.

A project team was formed, who will meet for their first planning session on Friday July 11th, 10am at The Pear. Anyone is welcome to join in planning this project, or to follow along for more information about when the first Dying to Know conversation will take place!
