When I met Ian in March 2024, it is fair to say he was in a broken place, unable to see a way forward. He is not the man he was then. He is still grieving... but in the healthiest possible way. What a guy and what a privilege to work with folk like him @FuneralLinkScot.
The first Christmas and New Year without a loved one can be brutal but, this week, it was also the first anniversary since Ian lost Sandra, who died after a terminal cancer diagnosis. Friendships are vital to the grieving and the healing process.

Pleased to see the media highlighting #FuneralPoverty and the work of our friends at @funerallinkscot. As Ewan says, it often slips below the radar. We too have seen an increase in people needing help and we must all keep up the pressure for change. news.stv.tv/north/dundee-cha…

Funeral Support Payment provides crucial financial support at a difficult time for many people. Money can be used towards the costs of a burial or cremation or other expenses. Forthcoming regulation changes will improve the delivery of the benefit. More▶️bit.ly/5yearsFSP

The @StobswellForum were in attendance that day it was very moving, we're glad you posted this
Five years on, in that wee slice of paradise known to Dundonians as Baxter Park, this tree still stands in memory of those we have loved and lost…
