Vent Over Tea is excited to invite you to our Intergenerational Death CafĂ©, in partnership with The Yellow Door, and facilitated by David Robinson. Here, the conversation is lively, and the mood isn’t as grim as you might expect 😉

This unique event is designed to bring people together across all ages and from different walks of life to discuss the too often taboo topic of death in a safe and comfortable environment. 

At this Death CafĂ©, we’ll share experiences, thoughts, and questions about death, dying, and bereavement. We promise the conversation won’t be a total downer.. we’re even bringing snacks and tea. We’ll explore everything from the afterlife to how we’d like to be remembered – and who knows, you might even leave with a new friend or two 💚

Expect to meet new people, hear fascinating stories, gain insights into your own relationship with death, and leave with new ideas to reflect on. 

We encourage you to bring an open mind, a sense of curiosity, and a willingness to engage in respectful dialogue with people from different backgrounds and generations. So join us for our Intergenerational Death CafĂ©, we can’t wait to hear your unique perspective – let’s explore this taboo topic together!
