Hello.

As we approach advent it is a time to reflect upon the year that has passed.   For many, it continues to be a difficult period in our lives.  We continue to be impacted greatly by the Coronavirus pandemic – with yet more new strains coming onto our shores.  During the first half of the year, business matters aimed to support people prepare for life after Covid through a series of online interviews with various guests from across the business community.   A summary of the themes and topics discussed can be found on the business matters’ website.

Our theme for the second half of the year has been climate change with a particular focus on the lead up to the COP26 event held recently in Glasgow.   We have been active on social media and co-hosted an online interview with OASIS Edinburgh.   If you missed this, you can view a recording via the following link on YouTube:  https://youtu.be/Iy1saVeCAxs

We have one final climate-themed event in the pipeline for December when a panel of experts will review COP26 and consider what happens now.   This is scheduled for 1pm on Friday 17 December. Below are the dial-in details.    We do hope that you will be able to join us.

On behalf of everyone at business matters and Workplace Chaplaincy Scotland, thank you for your support over the past year.    We look forward to engaging with you again in 2022 with a new theme and a fresh programme of events.

In the meantime, I wish you and your loved ones a very happy Christmas and pray that the new year brings you peace, joy and good health.
