Barbara Hammond

It is with great sadness that we have to advise all of our friends and supporters of the passing of Falkirk-based writer, and very good friend to The Write Angle, Barbara Hammond.

Barbara will be sorely missed, not only by her family, but by all that came to know her through her writing, The Writers' Umbrella, Falkirk Arts and Civic, Scottish Association of Writers, her support of The Write Angle, her joyous participation in spoken word events and her tireless volunteering with various community learning / adult literacies groups in the Falkirk and Stirling area.
Barbara was a staunch supporter of the arts, and everyone interested in all of its forms. Her passing leaves an enormous vacuum that will be extremely difficult to fill.

We, at this time, can only offer our heartfelt sympathy and condolences to all of her family and friends.

An event, celebrating the life and work of Barbara, has been arranged on the 31st January 2015.
We cordially invite all of her family and friends to share in an afternoon of story-telling, poetry and songs - just some of her many passions - and join us in paying tribute to the great lady herself.
