Toronto Death Care

On Sunday 20 November at 12:30 GMT join Elsa Stevenson - a writer, counsellor and instructor who presents public talks and discussions on the subject of Death and Dying, focussing on how cultural narratives regarding death condition the way we live and die.

Death, dying and the afterlife: mapping the subtle, experiencing the sacred. An introduction to a knowledge path that provides maps of meaning that guide our experience, from the physical to the metaphysical.

Lifting the Lid is an annual, online, international festival of death and dying that we aim to be free* for all to attend, now in its second year. You can join us from 18-20 November 2022 to choose from 100+ different discussions, performances, book readings, workshops and much more.

*Due to the phenomenal response we have already reached our capacity of Free Audience Tickets.

As the festival is unfunded, in order to keep registration open we have had to add a small change of £2.50 per audience registration. We hope you understand this is to cover the costs we are charged. You will also have access to the replay area of the festival until July 2023 to catch up on anything you miss.

Register for your ticket.

"Grief doesn't wear a watch or own a calendar, it takes place in its own time course, so even if it's after the fact, having an occasion where people can gather … to say 'We're here to talk about this person,' just to say what they meant in our lives, can be healing."

With pandemic restrictions lifted, Canadians are planning long-awaited memorial services to say goodbye to their loved ones — some, after two years of delays.

You’ve likely heard of fintech or health tech, but what about “death tech”? We all know we’re going to pass away at some point, but, traditionally the process of preparing a will, organizing funeral plans, buying life insurance, and taking care of other end-of-life tasks have been a largely offline process.

End-of-life tasks have been a largely offline process—until now.
