Info

A welcoming space for everyone—whether you've experienced grief or not - to connect, share feelings and experiences around love & loss. It's for people who have experienced grief, and for people who haven’t.

This gathering is an inclusive space, open to people of all ages, genders, backgrounds and beliefs. You’re invited to share your experiences and reflections around death and grief—but there’s no pressure to speak. Listening and being present is enough.

This Grief Gathering is hosted by artist Brendan Curtis with support of librarian Emma Latham who has experiences of grief.

Refreshments, including both hot & cold beverages and cake will be provided.

Please tell us your access or dietary requirements when booking, so we can make the day comfortable & welcoming for you.

We keep gatherings small, limited to 12 people maximum, so booking is essential.
