CDAS@20: 20 years of the Centre for Death & Society


This year, to mark 20 years of being at the forefront of our field, we are hosting a packed schedule of events that demonstrate our expertise in death, dying and bereavement.

We'll reflect on what has happened during our time, look ahead to the future, and end the year with our annual CDAS conference. We’d love you to celebrate with us.
