Compassionate Carers
Being compassionate for all of the carers in our communities.
At Death Positive Libraries NI, we are dedicated to fostering a culture of openness, understanding, and acceptance around death and dying.
Our initiative aims to create safe spaces within libraries across Northern Ireland where individuals can explore, learn, and discuss topics related to death and end-of-life care without stigma or fear.
We understand that people impacted by death, dying and loss often suffer a social death causing social isolation and loneliness.
By ensuring that people living with an advanced illness and frailty remain connected to people in the places where they normally live, work, play and pray, they are included and can contribute to their communities.
Why Supporting Working Carers is the Next Frontier for NI Employers.
