As the Remembering Together project reaches its conclusion, the legacy it leaves behind is just beginning to take shape. This community-driven initiative, born from the collective grief and reflection on the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, has paved the way for future generations to remember, heal, and understand the profound effect the pandemic had on Clackmannanshire.

Workshops were a cornerstone of Clackmannanshire’s Remembering Together Project, offering a space where creativity flourished and healing took root. These sessions, ranging from art and music to poetry and design, became more than just practical activities—they evolved into spaces where participants could rediscover their agency and connect on a deeper level.

The Remembering Together project has woven together the shared experiences of our community in Clackmannanshire, emphasising the resilience and strength that emerged in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Remembering Together project was made possible through the tireless efforts of numerous location partners across Clackmannanshire, who opened their doors and provided the spaces for the community to come together and create something truly meaningful. From community halls and churches to schools and public spaces, these partners were the foundation on which the memorial was built, both literally and figuratively.

Photography, as a medium, is both powerful and timeless, offering a way to freeze a moment and create a bridge between the past and future. In the Remembering Together project, photography was not just a tool to document our progress but also an essential medium for healing and reflection.

Music has always been a powerful tool for connecting people, expressing emotions, and healing wounds. During Clackmannanshire’s Remembering Together project, our community came together to create a deeply moving tribute through song, known as A Time of Healing.

The Covid-19 pandemic deeply impacted individuals and communities, with feelings of loss, grief, and isolation affecting us all. In response, art has become a powerful medium through which many have processed and expressed these emotions, turning personal pain into powerful and meaningful creations.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, many found solace in words and writing, using poetry as a powerful outlet to express the complex emotions brought on by fear, isolation, and loss.

During the Remembering Together project, film became a powerful medium for storytelling, offering a visual window into the experiences of Clackmannanshire’s communities during the Covid-19 pandemic.

This project wasn't simply about building a memorial, but about forging deep connections. By fostering mutual partnerships, we created a strong movement of wellbeing, positivity, and opportunities across the county.

At the heart of this process were the creative thinkers who harnessed creativity as a tool for reflection and transformation. These artists did more than help community create—they became stewards of the community, guiding people through a shared journey of healing and remembrance.

The Covid pandemic left many people feeling isolated, fearful, and disconnected. In response, our Remembering Together project placed a central focus on creating safe, welcoming spaces where community members could come together to reflect, share their experiences, and find a sense of belonging.

During Clackmannanshire's Remembering Together project, poetry and song emerged as two of the most powerful tools for emotional expression and collective healing.
