Hi everyone,
Following the success of last year’s event tickets are now available for this year’s Absent Friends Festival. This year we will be making memory boxes in an arts and crafts event.

Following postponement of our AGM, it now will be held on Monday 28 November 2022 at 7pm in Celebrate Kilmarnock, King Street. We have a link on eventbrite so please register for a ticket using the link – https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/absent-friends-festival-tickets-427827522637
It’s Tuesday! And that means its JustGiving Tuesday. Any donations made today are fee free for us: https://givingtuesday.justgiving.com/donate/?charityId=2991911
Our wellbeing/bereavement groups are still going strong –
In Saltcoats every Friday from 1pm at 27 Vernon Street in TACT (The Ayrshire Community Trust) across from the railway station. Next group 4 November 2022.
In Patchwork Recovery Community, Wellington Street, Kilmarnock on a Wednesday between 5pm and 6pm. (there is a meditation group in Patchwork afterwards)
In case of changes booking is advisable.
You can still support us by joining our small lottery. There’s a good chance of winning as it’s smaller and one person has won it 4 times now! You can join through our website.
Amazon also donate a percentage of any purchase made to us if you sign up for Amazon Smile. It’s paid by Amazon and although it’s only a very small amount it does add up. Follow this link to sign up and remember to always purchase through AmazonSmile –
