New community drop-in “In Case Of Death” launches at Brading Roman VillaA new monthly community initiative is launching on Saturday 18 April at 2pm at Brading Roman Villa, offering a welcoming space to talk openly about death, dying, and the practical aspects that come with it, such as planning ahead and making arrangements.
“In Case Of Death” is a free, informal drop-in session designed to make conversations about end of life feel natural, approachable, and even uplifting. The sessions aim to break down taboos and encourage people to share thoughts, questions, and experiences in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Far from being sombre, the gatherings are intended to be positive and life-affirming. Alongside meaningful discussion, there will be laughter, warmth, and connection. Each month will feature a different theme, with occasional guest speakers or activities to help explore topics in engaging and practical ways.
The sessions will be facilitated by experienced volunteers with backgrounds in grief support, sudden loss, long-term illness, and end-of-life care, including death doula work. Their combined experience helps create a space that is both understanding and gently guided. For more information please email [email protected]
Organisers are also inviting people working in related professions to get in touch if they would like to contribute to future sessions.
The café at Brading Roman Villa will be open during the sessions, offering refreshments for those who wish to stay and chat. Everyone is welcome—whether you’re curious, reflective, or simply want to be part of a supportive community conversation.
