We’re pleased to be able to announce save the date information for the 2023 NES Bereavement Conference—The Grief We Carry. This will be held on Tuesday November 28 as a free, virtual event.
More information on the programme, registration and parallel session and poster abstract submissions will be available over the coming weeks and months. Details will be added to the NES Events website.

New Podcast series
A new podcast ‘Talking about Bereavement’ will soon launch, featuring an initial four episodes which explore ‘The compassionate space in bereavement'.
The series is designed to support health and social care staff in having conversations around grief and bereavement. It is hoped that further episodes will follow later in the year, enabling other topics to be explored.
If you would be interested to listen to the first four episodes and provide NES with some feedback on your thoughts please contact SupportAroundDeath@nes.scot.nhs.uk. We’re looking for a number of people to act as reviewers, helping potentially to shape how the podcast evolves and develops.
Webinar Programme
The first webinar of 2023 was held in January and focussed on ‘Gender Based Violence and Bereavement’. Please click here to watch a recording of the session, which was delivered by Leanne Patrick, Gender Based Violence Nurse Specialist, Health Development Team Lead, NHS Fife.
The topics and dates for future webinars in the ongoing NES Bereavement series will be announced in due course. To be kept informed of these, health and social care staff may wish to sign up to receive the quarterly NES Bereavement Update e-Newsletter.
