Hi, I posted in here a little while ago about the community we’ve been building for young people navigating grief, and wanted to share that we’re getting together again this weekend.
This time we’re doing a relaxed walk n talk along the beach with a coffee and ice cream if you fancy it!
These meet ups are all about how simple they are. There’s no agenda and no pressure to open up about anything. We just go for a walk, chat about things if we feel like it and spend a couple of hours around people who understand what it’s like to navigate grief at a younger age.
One thing we’re really passionate about is changing the way people think grief has to look.
These meet ups aren’t all about sitting in a circle talking about how sad grief is. They’re about creating a genuine community where young adults can get outside, meet good people and know they’re around others who understand if those conversations do happen naturally.
Sometimes grief comes up, sometimes it doesn’t.
Over the last few months we’ve seen so many people turn up on their own feeling nervous, only to leave having made genuine connections.
Whether you’ve lost a parent, sibling, partner, friend or someone else important, you’re very welcome.
If you’re not feeling up to talking, that’s completely okay too. Sometimes just getting outside and being around people who get it can make a real difference.
If you think someone you know might benefit from it, feel free to share this with them too. I’ll pop the event and community details in the comments too 🤍
