Sensitive yet necessary conversations we need to have about death and dying, it’s the one certainty in life! What is a good death and who in the end decides? We should all have the death we want but is that the same for everyone? I’ve had two significant deaths affect me. My brother and my Dad. They both died under very different circumstances and the treatment they received was also very different. Both experiences leave the living and loved ones with questions about a level of care, a duty of care and of course dignity. I’m sure all of this will be discussed on the evening. Who wants to attend it with me?
Join us at UWS Dumfries campus for a thought-provoking event exploring the complex and sensitive topics of assisted dying, death, and grief.
“Opening Conversations on Assisted Dying, Death and Grief” is jointly hosted by the University of the West of Scotland and The Open University in Scotland. Join our leading speakers, including Dr Erica Borgstrom, Dr Rhona Winnington and Moira Dale, at a reflective death café where end of life issues will be explored.
