Date for Open Day Announced

On September 16th 12-4pm we will be at The Pole Barn, Marcassie Farm, Rafford, Moray.

We have teamed up with Naturally Useful to make an inspiring day of exploration into after death care possibilities locally in Moray. Join Karen and colleagues making a willow coffin and a woollen shroud.

Pushing Up the Daisies will be available for advice on after death care and their local after death assistance service. From 2pm Lin Carruthers and Kate Clark will be reading from their new book Slow Down When Someone Dies. Signed copies of books will be available on the day at the reduced price of £10.
