About this Event

The Botanics works with thousands of school pupils every year both in the Garden and all across Scotland. Join us and meet Eve, the Education Outreach officer who travels round Scotland inspiring young people to love plants with workshops full of games, storytelling and investigation! Through conversation, sensory activities and listening to pupils’ stories find out more about what this work is really like and share your own stories too!

These monthly meetings are designed for people living with dementia and a family member or carer. Sessions are free and facilitated, with refreshments and activities provided and volunteers on hand to assist.

Please book one ticket per person attending, including the family member or carer. Numbers are limited, so please ensure you cancel your booking if you can no longer attend so that we can give tickets to people on the waiting list.

For more information or to enquire about group bookings, please contact [email protected] or leave a message on 0131 248 2956.
