This conference continues to build on the collaboration between Faith in Older People and the Church of Scotland Guild which have convened an ecumenical group over the past few years.  We are delighted to be working collaboratively with Christians on Ageing and we are indebted to Zoom which has enabled an increased cross fertilisation of ideas and topics.

The aim of the conference is to highlight different aspects of the contribution made by older people and the importance of embracing new possibilities with and by older people noticing how we change and develop as we age and how we express our needs.  We will share examples of service and ideas.

There will be presentations on :

Ministry with older People (title tbc)

Rev Helen McCormack (Northallerton)

Potential for Pioneering Ministry with Older People (title TBC)

Rev Norman Smith (Edinburgh)

The importance of Chaplaincy

Donald Macaskill (Scottish Care)

Changing spiritual needs as we age

Dr Graham Hawley (Christians on Ageing
