Absent Friends Suppers

The Absent Friends Supper is a modern take on an timeless concept - getting together over food to remember people who have died.

Suppers can be formal or informal, public or private, dedicated to one person, or held in memory of many.

As part of the To Absent Friends festival this November, we are encouraging people to hold their own supper in memory of absent friends. We hope people will share their experiences on this website.
