Uplifting afternoon celebrating 60 years of the Churchill Fellowship and the collective achievements of 6,000 Fellows since 1965. I am very proud to be part of Sir Winston Churchill’s living legacy through my work to improve support for children impacted a parent’s suicide.

An open letter to the children Luna stood for.
I hope it is shared widely so it can be read by as many of those impacted by parental suicide as possible, as well as their families and those working to support them.

It’s a wrap! Finished opening keynote for StandBy Online Postvention Symposium 🇦🇺 at 01:30hrs local and making a beeline for bed. Great full circle moment sharing learnings from
@teamlunaorg with a key Australian organisation that inspired me on my @ChurchillFship travels in 2019

A bittersweet day today on Luna Foundation’s third and final birthday. We’ve achieved a huge amount these past three years and today was a moment to reflect on the progress we’ve made for children who experience the death of a parent through suicide.

After losing her father to suicide as a child, @annawardley saw the lack of support for young people in the same situation
With her Fellowship & a pilot Activate Fund grant, she launched a social enterprise to train professionals supporting bereaved children

A great start to the week filming with the team from Bounce Video. I'm thrilled to be part of such an exciting and inspiring project. It's under wraps for the moment, but I can't wait to share more as soon as I'm able to.
Stay tuned for updates in the new year.

Wonderful to be able to share about the work we've been doing at @teamlunaorg to improve the support for children who lose a parent to suicide, and to get down to the beach for some sea air.

This morning, @annawardley, founder and CEO of @teamlunaorg, was on @BBCRadioSolent sharing her advice for taking on big challenges like their #1000mile swim. Anna is part of the #SDMNetwork.

🧵 My top tips for the @BBCRadioSolent team taking on the #1000mile challenge:
1/ Break it down into chunks. Don’t think about the full distance, especially at the outset, to avoid being overwhelmed by the magnitude of the challenge ahead. Focus on swimming to the next feed.

4/ Refuel and hydrate regularly during training and the challenge. Prepare treats and rewards that will motivate you when you’re digging deep. I love fresh mango and Tunnocks chocolate tea cakes so they are always on the menu for long swims.

5/ Finally, train hard and swim easy. If you put the hours and the effort into preparing for the swim, the challenge itself will be the straightforward bit. My training regime before a challenge is gruelling to make sure I’m prepared physically, but more importantly, mentally.

We’ve already heard keynote speaker @SimonCalder delve into the opportunities for British ports in 2025 & beyond at day 2 of #BPA2024. Later, we'll hear a motivational talk from @annawardley on rising to the challenge, followed by a gala dinner & BPA annual awards. We can’t wait!
