Festival 2026

Recipes of Remembrance

Organised by Cowal Hospice Trust

4 November 2026, 1:30-3:30pm

CHATS/Cowal Community Hospital, Dunoon PA23 7RL

This activity is open to the public. Please register in advance.

As part of To Absent Friends, we invite you to join us for a special gathering celebrating the memories of loved ones who have died. 

Food often carries stories, traditions, and treasured memories. A favourite meal, a family recipe, or a special bake can connect us to those we miss and help keep their memory alive. 

We would love you to bring:

• A recipe that reminds you of a loved one who has died
• A favourite dish they enjoyed or were known for making
• A written recipe, photo, memory or story to share with others

Together, we will create a warm and welcoming space to remember, reflect on, and celebrate the people who remain important in our lives. 

Whether you come along to share a recipe, a memory, or simply to listen, everyone is welcome. Remembering through sharing food, stories and connection.

For more information and to book your place, contact Shaun Miller 01369 708363.
