People affected by the baby ashes scandal at Aberdeen Crematorium are encouraged to attend meetings next month to discuss setting up a memorial for the victims.
Failings at the Hazlehead site were highlighted in June following an investigation which criticised Aberdeen City Council.
It emerged that ashes of unrelated adults and infants had been routinely mixed, with baby ashes often not returned to parents.
The meetings will take place in the in the function suite of Hazlehead Cafe.
The first of these will take place on Tuesday, January 17 at 6.30pm, the second the following Saturday at 10.30am and the last on the same day at 1.30pm.
The meetings will be chaired by John Birrell from Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland, who urged people affected to come along.
He said: “Anyone affected by the past practices at Aberdeen Crematorium is invited to the meetings.
“These meetings will discuss the initial steps in setting up a lasting memorial, and will discuss issues such as what type of memorial people would like and where it should be placed.
“The meeting is open to anyone who was affected by what happened and they are very welcome to come along to any of the three dates and time offered.”
Representatives from Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland and Aberdeen Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Society will be present to offer support to families and the meetings are being supported by Aberdeen City Council.
Those wishing to attend should contact the Bereavement Services on 01224 522485 or on burials@aberdeencity.gov.uk
Additionally those who cannot attend a meeting but who wish to make their known can request a paper questionnaire.
An online questionnaire will also go up on the local authority’s website on January 17.
