We encourage participants to support each other free of any particular conclusion, belief system or course of action. This is a place where we can explore the unknown together - but it is not therapy, grief support or an advice hub.\n\nWe are a bi-monthly meetup for Canterbury locals wanting to share, connect, explore and learn more about these topics. Initially while the group is small we will meet over coffee in a central cafe. In time we will move to a quieter space and have guest speakers and workshops to support and challenge us.\n\nTheres no charge - but a small koha is always appreciated (towards the annual Meetup cost).\n\nNB. Although the idea for this group has sprung from the Christchurch Death Cafe and the growing interest participants have in these subjects, the BLADE Forum is a completely separate group.
