Amanda Blainey is a public speaker, writer and the founder of Doing Death, a multi-media platform and podcast that allows people to explore death and dying. In addition to working with patients in a UK hospice she is involved in 'The Hospice Biographers charity that records the life stories of terminally ill people. She also runs a regular Death Cafe - a pop-up space for people to discuss any aspect of death and dying. Her hope is that by shifting old paradigms and opening up authentic conversations, she can help people to accept death as part of life and inspire them to live in a more positive and meaningful way.
