Cambridge's first Death Cafe

With Rima Page, Alexandra Walker and Tracy O'Leary
Rima says:

"Both Alex and I had a parent die in early childhood, later, a husband and son . We have spent a lifetime exploring the emotional impact these deaths have left us with. We have both lived abroad and have explored cultural practices towards death in our reading and writing. We are conscious of how death is treated as infectious and mortality is not easily discussed.

"Tracy has experienced the impact of bereavement on people while organising natural burials. She speaks of her therapeutic role as a listener and people's need to have someone with whom they can talk about death."
