Death Cafes. The concept originates from Swiss sociologist Bernard Crettaz, who organized the first café mortel in 2004 to break the "tyrannical secrecy" surrounding death. Jon Underwood (and his mother, Susan) launched the first London Death Cafe in 2011 and created the central website, which provides guidelines for hosts worldwide. The primary objective is to create a safe, confidential space to reduce fear and enable people to live more fully by openly discussing mortality, dreams, and fears!!!

The cemetery is in an area bordered by the Townhead and Dennistoun districts to the north east of the modern city centre. Fifty thousand individuals have been buried here. Typical for the period, only a small percentage are named on monuments…and not every grave has a stone. Approximately 3,500 monuments exist here!!!
