'It helps increase an awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives.'
A "death cafe" in Belfast is now into its fourth year of sparking conversations to help people overcome fears about mortality.

Culturally we don’t talk about death, so we want to use the death cafe to help people feel more at ease when discussing the subject.
