Are you missing the fair since its departure a few weeks ago? Well there’s not long to wait until it’s back in Thame on Friday 9 and Saturday 10 October. This smaller fair will be setting up in the Upper High Street car park on the evening of Wednesday 7 October – please ensure all cars are moved from the Upper High Street car park by 5pm on Wednesday 7 October until Sunday 11 October.
You are warmly invited to attend Death Cafe in Thame. at 7:30pm in room 1 of the Barns Centre, and held on the third Thursday of each month thereafter
A Death Cafe is an informal gathering where people can discuss death over tea and cake. We’re aiming to normalise the topic of death, raise acceptance, and help people make the most of their lives by breaking the taboo around mortality. It is not a grief support group or counselling session. These sessions have no agenda, objectives, or themes, allowing for organic, group-directed conversations about anything related to death, from end-of-life planning to fears and feelings, fostering open sharing in a respectful, confidential space.
Death Cafe is run on a not-for-profit basis but if you are able to make a small donation to help us cover costs we would be most grateful. For more information please see https://deathcafe.com/what/ or email us at [email protected]
