Festival Events 2021

Community Gathering in the Gairden

Organised by Willobrae Community and Jock Tamson's Gairden. 5 November 2021, 4pm-5pm.

Willowbrae Community and Jock Tamson's Gairden in Duddingston are pleased to provide an opportunity for the community to come together and remember loved ones who have died. Expect a candlelit hour of poetry, music, nature and reflection on a Friday afternoon.

It is often said that the people we have loved and who have loved us, not only make us more human but they become a part of us. We carry them around all the time, whether we see them or not and, in some ways, we are the sum-total of those who have loved us and those we have loved.

Enjoy some poetry readings and music in this area of natural beauty. Come together with others who have experienced loss, or simply make some time for yourself to reflect on and remember loved ones in this beautiful setting. Grief is a natural part of life. We want to support grieving and remembrance in a relaxed and informal way, open to all.
