Marie Curie and St Columba's Hospice
Illness, caring, dying and loss: What can we do? 

What can we do as individuals, communities, and society to support each other through life limiting illness, caring, dying and loss? This workshop will explore what it takes to make care happen during these challenging times.  

What are we already doing? What choices and rights do we have? What support is available? Where are the gaps and what are the barriers? Building a shared sense of the compassionate care we can all be involved in is key to making this happen. 

Scottish Recovery Network
The role of peer support in addressing health inequalities

Peer support brings people together through shared lived experience, creating spaces where relationships are built on mutual understanding, trust, and respect. It recognises lived experience as a valuable form of knowledge, helping to shift power, strengthen people’s voices, and support greater choice and control in their lives. Across Scotland, peer support plays an important role in communities and organisations working to challenge inequality and support recovery.  

This participative workshop, facilitated by SRN’s Eilidh Hollow, will offer opportunities to explore what peer support means in practice and how it contributes to community-led approaches to health and wellbeing. The session will also create space to connect with others, share learning, and build relationships that support ongoing peer practice.
