Solicitor and doula Hilary Peppiette to give talk on supporting the dying at Just Festival

Hilary Peppiette

A solicitor is to give a talk on her role in supporting dying people, as a doula, at this year’s Just Festival in Edinburgh.

Death doulas help dying people and their families practically, emotionally and spiritually, to help them have the best possible quality of life right up to the end, and then to have the best death they can.

As a private client solicitor for over 20 years, Hilary Peppiette helped clients plan for the ends of their lives via wills, powers of attorney and advance directives.

Ms Peppiette, formerly of Allan McDougall Solicitors, has taken a break from practice to concentrate on her role as a doula.

The conversations, talks, exhibitions and performances which constitute Just’s annual programme are designed to engage with topical local, national and international questions of social justice, equality and identity, including prejudice against race, ethnicity, class and economic status.

Ms Peppiette will be speaking on 23 August at St John’s Church at 6pm.
