Bereavement support at Ashton centre

Wednesday, 4 March 2020 07:00

Ashton's Anthony Seddon Fund is launching a Bereavement Support Café tomorrow (Tuesday).

The café will be a place to talk about death, dying and bereavement.

Death is a natural part of life and will happen to us all at some point. Yet we don’t like to talk about it!

Help challenge that stigma around death, by tackling one of life’s last big taboos together.

Support is also available for those who have been affected by a bereavement.

The Bereavement Support Café will launch on Tuesday, March 10, when topics will include planning your funeral, making a will and bucket lists.

The café will run from 5.30pm to 7pm at the George Street centre.
