About this Event

Are you living with bereavement? Would you find it helpful to be with others who are experiencing loss? Might you find some support through exploring how grief has been prepared for, responded to and lived with by those in generations gone by?

If so, you are warmly invited to join Ruthanne Baxter, Prescribe Culture Lead and Heritage Collections Civic Engagement Manager and Katy Fisher, Chaplaincy Listener, as we engage with the University collections to discover how communities responded to grief over the centuries. This pilot session will look at ‘Words... when it feels there aren’t any’.
