TRIGGER WARNING :

Next week 4-11 May is Dying Matters Awareness Week . The theme this year is “Let’s talk about death & dying”

Not only is this raising awareness of the importance of those conversations but it gives us a platform to do so without judgement.
Society is not generally well equipped to do so .

So warning : I WILL BE TALKING LOTS ABOUT IT 👍

Dying Matters Awareness Week 2026 will take place from the 4-10 May. This year's theme is 'Let’s talk about Death and Dying'.

View till Tuesday
Thanks to zoom our online space was held again last night . Vets breakfast clubs were one topic of conversation. Do you ever attend them?

For many people a space like ours starts with views , quietly following, reading posts, and deciding whether something feels like the right fit before ever joining live.
Understood .

Operational Loss & Everyday Impact continues to run each month as a steady, structured space for veterans and blue light personnel navigating the impact of both work and personal loss.

Sometimes knowing the space exists is the first step.

TFIF 🫵🏻 What are the advantages of peer support that’s NOT connected to your employer ???

Simple . You’re already in a space where you don’t have to explain the nature of your role before you can talk about its impact AND - no repercussions.

Your losses are carried quietly — the loss of colleagues, difficult incidents, or experiences that stay with you long after the shift ends.

Peer support gets it -
No pressure. No fixing
Just a steady ,safe space where experiences can be acknowledged without needing too much explanation. That understanding makes a difference. It’s enough.

And personal losses - they can be harder to navigate if it’s something you’ve NOT been used to processing ,openly, as grief in a non ops way . Peer support gives you space to do that .

Building a space like this isn’t about numbers, clicks or likes.

It’s about creating something that feels safe & steady, judgement free. Somewhere that people can come to when they’re ready.

That readiness looks different for everyone. We’re here if & when that time feels right for you .

When you recognize that events during service and how you needed to deal with them at the time ( been told to put it in a box ) now impact your life when other situations occur.

IMAGE yesterday from my garden :
Anybody else told as a kid to go look for a crock of gold at the end of a rainbow ?
Misinformation or just parents keeping us occupied for an hour while we went looking …..

Update

If you or someone you know has been impacted by their experiences in the service, you’re not alone.

This space is here for you — completely independent, confidential, and built on trust. No judgement. No pressure. Just people who understand.

We know it’s not always easy to reach out, but sometimes just being in a room (even virtually) with others who “get it” can make a real difference.

🗓 Next session details are in the video
📌 Link to add it to your calendar will be pinned above

You can join anonymously — come as you are, or just listen if that’s what you need.

This is a safe space. Always.
