The bereavement services profession has already been rocked by the effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and yet for many areas, the worst is still to come.
Developing and executing contingency plans while maintaining business continuity and safeguarding staff and the general public, is arguably one of the biggest challenges that death care providers may ever face.
On Thursday 16th April 2020 at 3:00pm BST, join us for a live panel discussion, where a select group of local authority bereavement service managers, private organisations and association professionals will share their knowledge about how best to tackle this ongoing crisis.
This is a meaningful opportunity to connect with members of the bereavement services community, share experiences, learn from others and support one another as we navigate these uncertain times.
What our guests will cover:
✅Planning - An account of the contingency plans they’ve developed
✅Restraints - Legal, physical, people/HR
✅What's Next - What they're planning for the next stage of the pandemic
✅Ask The Panel - Put your own questions and concerns to the panel in this live Q&A session
✅Keeping The Sharing & Learning Going - Connect with bereavement services colleagues from across the country through a new dedicated forum, specifically curated for you to share and learn across any bereavement related topic
