Funeral Training first

Barbara Chalmers leads funeral trainees at Kinning Park Complex

Over the long weekend in September, we ran our first funeral training. Using the flexible, large, informal and open spaces of the newly refurbished Kinning Park (where we held our first wedding training), we supported 10 people to learn about end of life rituals and hone their skills in co-creating ceremonies, write scripts and deliver them with heart and care.

At that point in time, all new trainees were invited to join an extended family group for support and to share learning and experiences. Some time after the training we offered four participants the opportunity to join us.
