8 October 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
A thoughtful new community programme is coming to Hampton this November, offering local people a calm, structured space to explore some of life's bigger questions — from grief and loss to what it means to live well.
The Beauty Way Project CIC is running Conversations on Life & Death, a free six-week course funded by Living Well Dying Well. Sessions cover topics including our relationship with mortality, cultural and philosophical perspectives on death, grief, meaning-making, and practical matters such as advance care planning and communicating end-of-life wishes.
The programme is educational and reflective in nature — it is not a therapy group or bereavement service, and it welcomes people from all backgrounds and belief systems.
Classes begin on Monday 2 November at Hampton Inspired Hub and run for six consecutive Mondays. There is a choice of a morning group (10am–12.30pm) or an evening group (5.30pm–8pm), making it accessible for those who work during the day.
Places are free but limited, and an application is required to join. If this sounds like something you or someone you know would benefit from, it is worth applying soon. Full details and the application process are on the council's news page. Richmond Council — Conversations on Life & Death
