Organised by Pushing Up the Daisies

Saturday 18th May 2024, 11:00am-3:30pm

The Hidden Gardens, Tramway, 25A Albert Drive, Glasgow G41 2PE 

This event is open to the public. Please register in advance.

A day of storytelling, learning our options for caring for people after they have died & imagining what this can look like in Glasgow. 

11 – 1pm Tending to Death: Learn our rights and options in Scotland

There will be space to tell our own stories, demystify caring for our dead and learn about our legal rights and options in Scotland.

1 – 3.30pm Lunch and exploring what community-led after death care could look like in Glasgow

Join us for lunch followed by a discussion around what might community-led after death care look like in Glasgow. What are the barriers to people taking more control after someone has died? How do we address these barriers? What would caring for our dead within our communities look like in Glasgow?

Please note: the day is split into two sections. Please select which part you want to go to (which can be both) when you register.

Author of “Slow Down when Someone Dies” Kate Clark will be co-leading the day and there will be copies of the book available to buy.
