South Tyneside residents are invited to be ‘death positive’ at The Word
A ‘death discussion’ group is set to meet in South Shields.
South Tyneside residents are invited to The Word, on Market Place, in South Shields town centre on Thursday, May 7, to discuss death and be inspired to live their lives to the full.
Meeting between 1.30pm and 3pm, the group looks to strike meaningful conversation about the issues around death.
Organisers say that topics will range from things like writing a will to planning a funeral.
There will also be information on hand to help point residents to the right people if they are worried about anything relating to death.
A number of organisations will also be in attendance should anyone need specific information, including Age Concern and Bereavement Services.
Organisers have stressed that the event is a discussion group rather than a bereavement, grief support or counselling session.
