"Grief can look like efficiency.

Like someone who has it together.

Like someone who handles things.

And underneath all of it, there's a person just trying to stay upright."

Happy Mother’s Day🤍

A time to celebrate the love, strength, and care of mothers and maternal figures who shape our lives. We also know this d ay can be difficult for many. For those remembering a mother who is no longer with us, grieving the loss of a child, or carrying a quiet sense of loss today, you are in our thoughts.

The love between a mother and child never truly fades. Today we honour both the mothers we can hold close and those we hold in our hearts🤍

Today Adele and Bob volunteered at Caring Hands in the Community! It was a fantastic day helping in the kitchen, making tea and coffee, followed by helping serve breakfast and lunch!

We cannot thank the staff and other volunteers enough for showing us around, being so kind and helpful. We cannot wait to go back and volunteer more.

We encourage anyone within the local area who has some spare time to get in touch with Caring Hands and see how you can help or volunteer!

"AFTERGLOW

I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one.
I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun;
Of happy memories that I leave when life is done.

Anon"
