πŸ“ Dim Sum Social, 119 Tyrwhitt Road

In this final Death Over Dim Sum session of the year, explore a deeply personal question: What if you could attend your own farewell?

A living funeral offers a chance to hear words of love and gratitude while you’re still here β€” and to reflect on what truly matters before it’s too late.

Over dim sum and tea, join heartfelt conversations on life, remembrance, and authenticity. πŸ΅πŸ’­

2️⃣ Disability Inclusive Language (22 Nov 25)
