From December 2016 until the end of July 2017 an exciting new Dying Matters community display will be on show at Leeds City Museum. By exploring objects related to death from a range of cultures, from an Egyptian shabti to a Victorian funeral cart, the exhibition seeks to start conversations and to encourage visitors to think about, and plan for, their own end of life.
