Chiltern Compass runs customised workshops for community based organisations such as churches, faith groups and societies. This is done at no charge, though a donation would be much appreciated. We also run ‘drop- in’ sessions in Amersham and Chesham, for anybody who would like to have an informal chat about end of life issues. From time to time Chiltern Compass holds concerts and plays related to end of life topics.
Please contact us to discuss the timing and planning of an event.
Chiltern Compass also runs events open to everyone. For example, our last event, Practical Planning for End of Life, covered legal matters to consider and how to plan for a good funeral.
The workshop included sessions on:
- Legal matters to Consider in Later Life
- My Good Funeral
