Join NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, Pushing Up The Daises, Caledonia Funeral Aid and Social Security Scotland for these online sessions.
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde have partnered with Pushing Up The Daises, Caledonia Funeral Aid and Social Security Scotland to host sessions which aim to shine a light on how people can attend to their own wellbeing following the death of a significant person, especially one they may have cared for.
During the event, you will get the opportunity to discuss:
- ideas for helping you to start your grieving process in a way that best serves you and the people around you
- the pros and cons of being actively involved yourself with arrangements for burial or cremation and also perhaps the person’s body,
- practical information about the Funeral Support Payment which help people with certain benefits and tax credits to pay for a funeral,
- the laws around death and funerals, and
- why your choices are really important to help your grieving and for your long-term well-being.
These sessions are suitable for everyone, so whether you are a carer yourself, work with carers, families and patients, or are just interested to learn a little more about this subject, please do join for what is sure to be a very interesting event.
These sessions will be running on Microsoft Teams.
