Description

The pop up installation, modelled on an airport departure lounge, seeks to enable people to talk more openly about death and dying and explore what it means to have a good death. Visitors can explore the space, share their thoughts and talk to our Guides, who are a diverse mix of researchers and professionals with experience of death and dying. The Academy has chosen Lewisham as the base for The Departure Lounge as a busy, diverse area which is also the birthplace of the hospice movement. The installation coincides with Dying Matters Awareness Week (13-19 May 2019).
