Companionship in Grief

Wednesday, October 25, 2023: Café meeting about grief – theme: “Companionship in Grief”

Online Café Evening: Companionship in Grief

Join the online café evening about grief, tailored for those who have lost a loved one due to illness, suicide, accident, or other circumstances.

The theme of this café evening is how companionship and conversation can ease the grief following the loss of someone close.

Grief accompanies us throughout our lives, but it becomes slightly easier to bear when we share it with others, helping us feel less alone and isolated.

The evening will begin with a conversation between two Aliasoqatit volunteers and psychologist Mette Mørk Bjørnskov. Both volunteers have experienced loss and will share their stories. This discussion will serve as a presentation that attendees at the café event can listen to. Afterwards, participants will be divided into smaller groups where there will be an opportunity to discuss various experiences of being together in grief.
