There is something incredibly grounding about being outdoors, working with your hands, and allowing nature to offer moments of calm during times of loss. 🌿

We’re pleased to let you know that a new Gardening Through Grief group will be starting at TWIGS Community Gardens on Friday 23rd January 2026.

This small, welcoming group provides a peaceful setting where those experiencing bereavement can spend time in nature, share quietly if they wish, and take gentle steps towards healing.

Places are limited, so we recommend booking early.

We wanted to pay tribute to this family and honour their brother’s pride in his Polish heritage, so our team wore red and white striped ties in his memory.
🇵🇱

This week holds special significance for the Polish community as it marks the Feast of the Epiphany, also known as Three Kings’ Day. It felt especially meaningful to recognise this occasion while also celebrating the life of their beloved brother.

As the Star of Bethlehem shines brightly this week, may it also shine for him. ✨

We know this time of year is tough for a lot of families.

We have the honour of supporting so many families, and for them to take time out and leave such kind words to us is something we value tremendously.

Every member of our team goes above and beyond to help make the most difficult times feel that little bit more manageable, and we’re incredibly proud of the care and compassion they show every day.
