For Jenny Watt, death is a key part of her life.
The 31-year-old spends two or three nights a week chatting to people – whether familiar faces or strangers she's met for the first time – about everything connected with death, from working through grief to the ideal song for a funeral.
Jenny runs a handful of death cafés across Glasgow – community spaces that aim to encourage conversation and discussion about a topic few people like to raise.
BBC Scotland News attended one of the weekly gatherings, which Jenny believes can help break down taboos about the subject.
But what makes a person want to spend time talking about the end of life?
Jenny estimates around half the attendees at her groups are there to process grief in some way, whether for a recent loss or from 20 or 30 years ago.
"The same way people are called to nursing or religion, I've always been interested in death," she explains.
"It's going to happen to everybody. It might be unique for you and the relationships you are grieving but if you feel it just by yourself it can be a lonely experience.
"When you start talking about it you realise it's not so scary."
