About this Event

Join us for a behind‑the‑scenes look at the landmark heritage Palm House as we start to reveal the extensive renovations and begin replanting the Living Collection. Led by a member of our Public Engagement team, you’ll gain insight into the building’s history, the restoration process, and stories connected to this remarkable space.

Please note we will not be visiting the renovation site in this session due to landscaping works.

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.
