More funding for our Good Grief Project in Waltham Forest
We’re thrilled to announce that our Good Grief Together Project in Waltham Forest has received funding from the National Lottery Community Fund!
This incredible support allows us to continue creating safe, welcoming spaces where people can come together, share their grief, and find connection in our Grief Cafes.
The funding will also enable us to continue delivering our Understanding Grief awareness talks and expand our work by launching Grief Walks – a new initiative inspired by community feedback.
Stay tuned to our events page for updates on upcoming events.
BBC Morning Live – Talking About Bereavement
On 15th Feb 2024 we appeared on BBC Morning Live talking about bereavement with presenter Jackie Joseph.
Many people who attend our Grief and Death Cafes talk about how isolating and lonely grief can feel, particularly when other people don’t know what to say to you.
So when we were approached by the BBC, to take part in a film about bereavement, we knew we had to participate to help raise awareness of grief and how to support someone who is grieving.
Some of our cafe attendees shared their own personal experiences of grief and shared their thoughts about the different ways we can support someone who is grieving and also what to say to them – saying something is better than saying nothing.
