We will be selling number 1-100 to win this during our lunch at £10.00 per number - with the runner up prize a bottle of AU Vodka donated by John K Phillips Transport

Once everyone in the room has had a chance to pick their lucky number, any remaining numbers will be available.

If you would like the chance to win this bespoke prize please send me a DM - numbers will be assigned, and we will do a live draw to ensure a fair draw is viewed.

‼️just two spaces left‼️

Do you think you could host your own Bereavement Café?

We get emails and enquiries every day from people asking what we do, how do we do it - or - that they’ve attempted to host one but have come unstuck as they were unprepared and unsupported.

It isn’t easy, and it’s definitely not something anyone should try without thorough training, understanding and support.

But it is so rewarding.

We’ve created an official training and certification programme due to growing demand which follows our successful G.R.I.E.F Framework.

As an award-winning service trusted by hundreds, we want to ensure each café is run safely, confidently and with care.

This in-depth training is delivered by our own bereavement specialists and coaches with real, lived experience who have trained and supported 100’s of people struggling with grief.

You’ll learn how to hold space, support others, manage group dynamics and know when to listen or signpost.

You’ll receive full certification, a toolkit of resources, ongoing support and your café listed on our national website.

This is more than a course, It’s a community and with more and more people finding it easier to talk about their feelings, let’s be that safe space that they need and be part of something that truly makes a difference.

Places are limited. Book now to begin your journey.

Manchester has once again been shaken, this time our Jewish community has been attacked. My thoughts are with everyone affected.

Grief does not only follow a bereavement. There are over 60 different types of loss we can experience, and news like this can stir grief for the loss of safety, trust, or certainty. It can also reopen old wounds and memories.

As someone whose children were caught up in the Manchester Arena bombing, I know how deeply those feelings can cut.

If anyone feels they would benefit from a safe space to listen and be heard, please message me.
If needed, I will organise a Grief and Loss session. (No cost)

To the Jewish community, I stand with you

Thank you to Angela Brown and for this kind write up about The Complete Grief Guide.

I love how this article has been Released today on the anniversary of my Beautiful Grandma Elsie’s death, my best friend who I still miss very much (and I’m definatley starting to look like her .. 🧓🏼)

I have never wanted anyone to feel as lost and alone as I once felt during the darkest of days following my Husbands death. Learning more about Grief, training and specialising in coaching and supporting others has become my passion, validating the experiences and feelings of our attendees whilst also teaching others about the power of the best language to use helps us all create a more compassionate and grief aware culture.

This morning I’ve been catching up on admin to prepare for a busy few weeks ahead, and I hadn’t realised that I’d hit a milestone with my book The Complete Grief Guide.. I have sold over 100 copies 🙌

Before I even think about the personal pride I have after doubting myself for so long, what really makes me happy is that means the minimum of 100 people have seen it, and read it - that’s before it’s been passed on to others (which I have heard many people say).

If you have bought it from our website, Amazon or direct from me, can I please ask if you could leave a review against the link below, or even on here too for others to see how it has helped you.

And if you haven’t got a copy yet - here’s the link ⬇️

Thank you
