Burial Strategy

for Dumfries and Galloway Consultation

Community Conversations

Please come along and tell us your thoughts to help us develop a burial strategy for Dumfries and Galloway.

We understand bereavement is a sensitive subject but it is important that we are able to seek the views of our communities to help us shape the future of the service.  

There are in person conversations and online sessions, for anyone who cannot attend in person. 

Our face-to-face sessions will include a presentation and discussion for the first hour followed by a drop-in session for anyone who would like to learn more and complete the survey.

Online sessions

Thursday 22 June, 7pm – 8.30pm

Wednesday 28 June, 7pm – 8.30pm

To register for the online sessions please email burialstrategyconsultation@dumgal.gov.uk
