University Memorial Garden dedication, Wednesday 6th May
Join us on Wednesday 6th May at 2.45pm as our Inter-faith Chaplaincy, along with our Clerk of Senate, formally dedicate the University's Memorial Garden in a short ceremony. Thanks to the skill of our Estates colleagues, this space to the rear of the Law School on Professors' Square has recently been transformed into a beautiful, colourful garden. We hope that it will provide a quiet, meditative place for people to take a moment to remember their loved ones. For more information, contact chaplaincy@gla.systa-s.com. All welcome.

Take a break, slow down, and unwind in the calm and beautiful surroundings of the Memorial Chapel. Join us for a relaxing de-stress session with soothing music, colouring books, and good vibes.
