It Takes A Village exhibition - Health & Social Care Moray

It Takes A Village exhibition - Health & Social Care Moray

Organised by Health & Social Care Moray

5-9 May

Elgin

This event is open to the public.

There is an old African proverb –‘It takes a village to raise a child – meaning, children need the input and support of their whole community to grow into well-rounded adults. But doesn’t it also ‘take a village’ to support someone who is dying?

The Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care has worked with award-winning Glasgow based photographer, Colin Gray, to produce this powerful and challenging series of portraits and personal stories. It Takes a Village explores the idea that as people’s health deteriorates, care and support comes in many guises.

We will be displaying the It Take A Village exhibition for the public to view. There will also be information stalls to find out more about local organisations’ services, and speakers on topics such as end of life, Power of Attorney and wills, funeral arrangements, and bereavement support.
