'Death Cafes' to be held next week

Events where you can talk openly about death are being held next week.

Known as death cafes, organisers say they can help people prepare for their own or a loved one's death, and discuss what a good death looks like. 

The first is at the Thie Rosien Community Centre in Port Erin on Monday, October 6 from 2pm to 3.30pm. 

Another will be held at Douglas City Library on Thursday, October 9 from 10am to 12pm. 

A third meeting will take place at the City Library on Wednesday, November 12 from 2pm to 4pm.
