Demystifying Death Practicalities

Demystifying Death Practicalities

Organised by Pushing Up the Daisies

9th May 2026, 2pm-4:30pm

Salisbury Centre, Edinburgh

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

This practical workshop will demystify the process our bodies go through after death. We will demonstrate ways to tend to someone’s body at home after their death. We will dispel myths, consider discomforts, and address uncertainties.

We aim for this to be a safe space. Participants are welcome to take breaks at any time but we cannot provide emotional support. With great tenderness, we ask that participants are conscious of what they can reasonably manage in this space, take care of their own emotional needs and lean on their own support systems.

The venue is wheelchair accessible. Let us know anything that would help you to participate in the workshop. We want everyone to have access to this information - if finance is a barrier to you attending, please contact kate@pushingupthedaisies.org.uk
