Please could you share this opportunity to take part in research that aims to make UK bereavement support more equitable? Thank you 🙏 @JeffreyAmber @BlackInMH @NDodzro @ubeleinitiative @CovidMemorialUK @BAMEMentalHS @cahn_uk @GoodGriefFest
1/ People from the Black Caribbean community are under-represented in our recruitment. It's important that their experiences are included in our research so that bereavement services are developed to meet their needs too.

‘Don’t ask a bereaved person to move on or find closure. Openings, yes. Closure,no. The reality is you dont stop loving someone after they have died’: Jane Harris Thanks to @PrimaMag for sharing. #whenwordsarenotenough #grief @DyingMatters @CruseSupport @mariecurieuk @psychmag

Thanks to @Katierosseinsky @Independent People feel comfortable talking about celebrity deaths, or deaths on screen (like Succession’s) – “but your neighbour’s child dies and nobody talks about it”. We “need to normalise these conversations,” Jane Harris independent.co.uk/life-style…

Thank you @thetimes for this amazing piece about BREATHTAKING - coming to @itv in Feb. We've tried so hard to show what really happened behind closed hospital doors - the grit & courage & compassion of NHS staff. And the same, in abundance, from patients & their families 💙

As the years pass, do you worry you might forget your child? Do you fear they will disappear into the mists of time? On our Active Grief Weekend retreats we can help you create new photographs that allow you to continue your bond with them in a new and meaningful way.

As the New Year approaches, we look for ways to carry Josh into 2024 with us. If you're finding the prospect of another year difficult, take a moment to honour your child and keep them present with you as the New Year begins. We would love you to share them with us

Grieving at Christmas, particularly in the early years, can be a lonely affair. We don't feel like going out, but also we don't want to feel that we have been forgotten, or are unwanted. #GriefAtChristmas #SayTheirName 🧵

We are mourning the loss of our child, but also we are mourning the loss of the fun, sociable person we used to be. We know it's hard for people, and it's painful for everyone. Jane describes this as feeling like the 'bad fairy at a happy gathering' 2/3
