Join us from 6:00pm for food, drinks and networking. Talk starts at 6:30pm.

This month we welcome user researcher Mark Branigan to tell us all about designing within the funeral service.

What happens after we die?

Mark will be discussing why he wanted to work in the funeral sector, what goes into planning a funeral and how his team went about designing a digital service to give funeral directors more time to spend with bereaved people. He’ll look at context, research methods, how this fed into design iterations and discuss what’s next in the funeral industry. It’s a fascinating, multi-faceted subject and there’ll be plenty of time for any questions you have too!

Meet-up attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meet-up by clicking “Attend this meet-up” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meet-ups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
