SI - Good Grief Club - The Art of Life
This project aims to encourage ‘lively’ conversations around planning for end of life, death and dying. Comedy is one approach that can have a real impact, helping people to relax, share their stories and process their thoughts and experiences in a supportive way whilst enjoying the many benefits of
The Good Grief Club membership.
The Good Grief Club is open to anyone (aged 55+) to come along and meet with creative facilitators Briege McClean & Anthea McWilliams who will share humour, stories, jokes and oh yes, some creativity too whilst exploring with everyone the art of living, dying, death (defying) and defining. The 2-hour workshop will invite participants to share their own stories, thoughts, fears and future plans around the inevitable, through:
- making something simple
- writing something easy
- with a wee bit of music to kick your heels up to (in the absence of a bucket!) to finish us all off.
- joke telling will be encouraged
“Come along if you know what’s good for you!”
