Join us on November 2, 2026, for a special All Souls Day Death Cafe—a supportive, open-space gathering dedicated to thoughtful, respectful conversation about death, dying, grief, bereavement, and remembrance.

This event is open to all community members who wish to talk about mortality, process grief, or simply reflect on life and loss in a compassionate environment.

Held in honour of All Souls Day at the end of Mental Health Month, our goal is to break the stigma surrounding conversations about death. By normalising these discussions over tea, coffee, and cake, we aim to build community resilience, reduce anxiety, and foster emotional well-being.

Community members can participate by joining small-group discussions, sharing personal reflections, or simply listening. There is no set agenda, lecture, or expectation—just open, participant-led dialogue in a safe, non-judgmental space.

Attendance is completely free! You can simply show up on the day, but we would appreciate RSVPs using this link.

Acknowledgement of Country

The Murrumbidgee MHDA Alliance acknowledges and pays respects to the traditional owners of the lands on which our member organisations operate; the Wiradjuri, Nari Nari, Wemba Wemba, Perepa Perepa, Yorta Yorta, Ngunnawal, Ngarigo, Bangerang and Yitha Yitha Nations.

We recognise our communities are made up of many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples descended from additional mobs and clans who also call the Murrumbidgee region home.

We pay respect to elders past, present and future and recognise these lands have always been places of traditional healing and medicine, and this plays a role in shaping future health services

Recognition of Lived Experience

We recognise the profound contributions of individuals with lived and living experiences of mental health challenges, substance use, and suicide, as well as those who care for and support them. Each person’s journey is unique and adds invaluable insight into how we can collectively improve and reform mental health and suicide prevention systems.

We also remember those we have lost too soon, and recognise the lasting impact their absence leaves on their families, carers, and communities. Their stories, strength, and resilience guide us to confront stigma and ensure our efforts are informed by compassion, respect, and lived experience.
