These sessions provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your questions about life, death and everything in between.
Each session introduces a different topic for conversation, but our discussion will be directed by the interests and questions that each person brings. Everyone is welcome, and no previous knowledge is required – only an open mind, and a willingness to listen and contribute as much as feels comfortable.
Conversations that Count are led by a skilled member of staff who will provide support and facilitation throughout the conversation, as well as ensuring a safe and confidential space for everybody.
