Cultivating spaces to normalise conversations about Death & Dying
Created by The Dying Well and facilitated by Chi Chi Menendez, these talks and workshops exist to create spaces where death, dying, and grief can be met with openness, care, and meaning. Conceived in response to the needs of individuals and in consultation with the community, each project invites a deeper engagement with death as a natural, sacred, and relational part of life.
Whether through education, ritual, art, or dialogue, these offerings are designed to support people in navigating end-of-life experiences with more clarity, courage, and compassion. They offer room to speak honestly, feel deeply, honour what has been lost, as well as prepare for what lies ahead. In a culture that often avoids or medicalises death, these projects restore the possibility for presence, ritual and connection.
They are an invitation to slow down, to remember, and to participate in the shared work of reweaving death back into the fabric of life.

Death Conversations
These community-based events and workshops are designed to open meaningful space around death, dying, and grief. Death Conversations are gatherings that foster open dialogue, offering a supportive environment for people to speak, listen, and reflect on death as part of life. Each session explores a different theme, from caregiving to legacy, from fear to transformation, allowing participants to share stories, ask questions, and build collective understanding.

Death Matters
Death Matters is an educational talk and workshop designed to provide clear, compassionate guidance on end-of-life planning and death literacy. It offers participants practical tools alongside emotional and spiritual frameworks to help navigate choices around death with greater confidence and awareness. This offering is suitable for all stages of life, not just elders, and can be adapted for various groups or community settings.
Death Matters is a structured educational resource designed to deepen death literacy through a range of rotating themes and accessible resources. Topics include end-of-life planning, legal and practical preparation and the role of community in dying well.
Ritual & the Art of Farewell
Ritual & the Art of Farewell is a creative, hands-on workshop that invites participants to engage with grief, remembrance, and transition through the language of ritual. In these sessions, we work with symbolic materials, gesture, and intention to craft personalised rituals of farewell, whether for a loved one, a life chapter, or something left unspoken. All of these offerings are grounded in slowness, respect, and shared humanity. They are created to meet people where they are and to nurture a sense of community, meaning, and care around one of life’s most universal and tender experiences.
