good life, good death, good grief

Demystifying Death Week 2022

Taking place across Scotland from 2-6 May, Demystifying Death Week is about shining a light on death, dying and bereavement in Scotland. We are encouraging people to get involved by holding online events that bring death, dying and bereavement into the limelight.

Below is a list of events registered so far - these pages will be updated over the coming weeks. If you are organising an event, please get in touch.

Taking Care of Yourself When Looking After Someone

Organised by NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde. Monday 2 May, 2pm

What will we be talking about?

Supporting other people can take its toll, and whilst it may be the last thing on our minds, taking time for ourselves is really important. Come along for an informal chat about some ways to help recharge and promote self-care.

Who is this event for?

Open to everyone but may be particularly useful for unpaid carers.

When and where is it happening?

2.00-3.00pm, Online on MS Teams
