Creating a Safe Space for Discussing Life and Mortality: Welcome to Timaru Death Cafe

Death Cafe Timaru

Death Cafe Timaru July 2021 Jade Whaley holding cake at the opening
I was excited to bring Death Cafe to Timaru in July 2021
Launched by Jade Whaley in Timaru 2021, Death Cafe Timaru has had amazing success.

We would love for your to join us for a thoughtful discussion about the end of life and share your experiences, thoughts, and fears about death.

​Our Timaru Death Cafe is a group-directed conversation about death and dying over a cuppa and cake. The discussion is to increase awareness of death to help people make the most of their lives.

Do you want to join our next cafe?

Our group does follow the protocols and outline of established global death cafes. We will talk about all sorts of interesting death-related things, from green burials, ageing parents to DIY coffins.

​We have had topics about death doulas, death in different cultures, assisted dying and near-death experiences (NDEs).  At the first meeting, we talked about philosophy, the meaning of life, and our own experiences.  There is no schedule for the content of our discussion on the day.

​ At Death Cafe Timaru, we don't promote any particular conclusion, belief system or course of action.
IMPORTANT. It is not intended as a counselling group or grief support. It may not suit people who are recently bereaved or who are actively grieving.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗔 𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗛 𝗖𝗔𝗙𝗘?
Death Cafe is a 'social franchise'. This means that people who sign up to our guide and principles can use the name Death Cafe, post events to this website and talk to the press as an affiliate of Death Cafe.
Death Cafes have spread quickly across Europe, North America and Australasia. There are 12638 Death Cafes in 78 countries since September 2011.
