This conference is coming up early next month, and is for professionals working directly in schools and within the education sector as a whole.
The programme is to include:
Stewart Wilson, CEO of Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland will be our chair for the day with Mark McDonald MSP, Minister for Childcare and Early Years as our keynote speaker.
We will also be joined by colleagues from Team Jak Foundation, North West Carers Team at Glasgow City Council, Muslim Bereavement Support Service, Ayrshire Hospice, The Village Storytelling Centre and NHS Dumfries and Galloway as well as a parent speaker and young carer.

“I really felt I was able to engage, and came away from the course invigorated, bursting with ideas, and desperate to share the experience with colleagues.”
