Christmas Concert Glasgow

We are excited to announce our first ever Christmas Concert in Glasgow.

Join us for a magical evening featuring popular carols as well as festive readings and performances from our celebrity friends and supporters at Cottiers, one of Glasgow's most unique and magical venues. Confirmed performers so far this year include former BBC broadcaster Dr Vanessa Collingridge and her son, Archie, TikTok sensation and a regular performer at Glasgow’s iconic Wunderbar.

In previous years, our flagship concerts in London have included performances and readings from a host of celebrities, including Sir Tom Jones, Jools Holland, Bill Nighy, and Dame Mary Berry. Our first Glasgow concert promises the same Christmas magic.

Light a candle in memory

During the concert we will light LED candles in memory. These candles will be displayed in the church and shown during the online stream of the event. If you would like a candle lit in memory of someone important to you who has died, please state their name(s) when booking your tickets. If you are able to, please consider making a donation. Your donation will mean that bereaved children, and those affected by the death of a child, do not have to face this difficult time alone.

If you are not presented with an option to pay using the booking form below, then please navigate to the very bottom right of this webpage and click 'manage cookie preferences' and then accept performance and functionality cookies.

Telling a child that someone has died

It is important to tell a child of any age when someone important in their lives has died, and ideally this is done by someone who is closest to them.
Supporting bereaved children and young people

Children and young people grieve just as much as adults but they show it in different ways. Find out how you can help them and more about child grieving.
Grieving for a child of any age

The agony of losing a child of any age is unparalleled. There is no age or point in time that makes it any easier. No parent expects to face the death of their child and no grandparent expects to lose their grandchild.
When a grandparent dies

The death of a grandparent is often a child or young person’s first encounter with the death of someone important. Parents have a great deal to manage when their own parent or carer dies. There is the grief associated with their own loss, but also the reactions and responses of their children to the death of a grandparent.
Children's understanding of death at different ages

Guidance on children's understanding of death at different ages and stages of development.
Child Bereavement UK training

Child Bereavement UK designs and delivers training for professionals in health and social care, education, the emergency services and the voluntary and corporate sectors, equipping them to provide the best possible care to bereaved families.
Children's understanding of death at different ages

Babies and young children have no understanding of the concept of death yet, long before they are able to talk, babies are likely to react to upset and changes in their environment brought about by the absence of a significant person.

When your baby dies

When a baby lives only a short time or dies before birth due to miscarriage, stillbirth or a painful decision to end the pregnancy, people may assume that the loss is not important. This is simply not the case.
UK death & bereavement statistics

A parent of children under 18 dies every 22 minutes in the UK; around 23,600 a year. This equates to around 111 children being bereaved of a parent every day.
