The Old Kirk and Muirhouse church, Drylaw Parish Church, and North Edinburgh Arts have pulled together this programme for “To Absent Friends“, for folk to talk about good life, good death, good grief.

It started yesterday with our annual ‘All Souls’ service and moves around the area for the next fortnight (see poster for details). All welcome.
