SUMMARY:Grief and the Impact on Your Business
DESCRIPTION:In Scotland in 2014\, there were 3367 deaths in the Highlands. At a very minimum\, at least four people are affected by each death\, that’s over 13\,000 people who are very likely still grieving to some extent or another.\n\nThis can have a big impact on business\, in many different ways\, and is important for business owners to be aware of.\n\nJane Duncan Rogers\, small business coach\, speaker and author of Gifted By Grief: A True Story of Cancer\, Loss and Rebirth found herself unable to work in the same way after the death of her husband in 2011. At this event\, she will tell us about her personal story in relation to death\, including the impact that dying\, death and grief can have on employees\, customers\, suppliers and of course\, you\, the owner; not to mention the bottom line.\n\nShe'll speak of the importance of completing your copy of her new workbook\, Before I Go: Practical Questions to Ask and Answer Before You Die - and how it is essential to consider what would happen to your business too\, should you pop your clogs before you plan to.

SUMMARY:Before I Go: Practical Questions to Ask and Answer Before You Die workshop
DESCRIPTION:\n\tIf you died\, would your partner/child be able to access your accounts?\n\tWould they know what had been precious to you and what not?\n\tWould they be able to follow a clear guide as to how you want your end of life or funeral to be?\n\nExplore the impact of these questions and many more that will affect your loved ones after you die\, all outlined in Jane’s new workbook Before I Go: Practical Questions to Ask and Answer Before You Die. These informal workshops are an opportunity to meet together with interested others\, discover what you need to take action on to bring yourself relief and peace of mind\, and lessen the hassle for your family after you pop your clogs.\n\nIt’s for those who want to do it the ‘old-fashioned way’ and write it down! You’ll be able to see copies of the workbook\, and buy your own\, just £7.99. Or check it out at http://www.giftedbygrief.com/products and bring your copy along to meet Jane and ask questions about your particular situation.\n\nHere's what one couple said about Jane's work:\n\nDiscussing everything from how to operate the central heating system\, to what preferences\, if any\, we had on how our burial/ final celebration might look\, has brought on a depth of intimacy between us\, that on its own is worth while experiencing. Looking at the possibility of incapacity\, and death for either one of us has not been the dreadful subject one could imagine.  Now the ball is rolling it feels good and positive.  Hugh and Janet\n\n

SUMMARY:Dead Good Cake 'n Chat
DESCRIPTION:Come and be a part of the nationwide Big Conversation during the 7th annual Dying Matters Awareness Week. People are beginning to talk openly about death and dying\, and this is a chance to gain information and dispel long-held myths and taboos around this subject. It is not a bereavement group but we hope to answer questions and help the discussion around what we would like at the end - before the end. Thinking about the inevitable in advance ensures good preparation for us and our families\, and better choices to suit our individual needs.
