1 month, 21 events, so many conversations about why #DyingMatters.
We talked in parks, cemeteries, universities, pubs, community centres, woods, at home, at work, in places of worship, hospices, libraries.
Thank you to all who took part!
And let’s keep talking about it...
💞 "I think compassion is at the core of humanity. It’s something that we all share, and we all have in common"
🗣️ @NowThenSam chats to Ruth, Mariana & Nick from @CompassionSheff about their work celebrating & nurturing human connection in #Sheffield.

Why talk about death, dying and loss?
-It happens to all of us, it’s something we all have in common
-We can build our confidence to support others through death, dying and loss
-By talking about death we come to understand what’s important in life
