Finding meaning in remembrance - a day when I acknowledge not just what was lost, but also what continues.

For someone who now lives alone after the death of a spouse or partner, fleeting moments of small talk might be the only human contact they have all week.

Grief is one of the most universal experiences we share, yet when it arrives, it can feel unspeakable. But what happens when words just aren’t enough?

Bereavement advocacy is so vital in the workplace. It reminds us that behind every policy and every productivity metric, there is a person with a story.

I experienced the heartbreaking loss of my baby, Caleb, at seven months old. It was the kind of loss that completely shifts your world.

The reality of baby loss can mean returning from hospital to an empty room, a nursery prepared with hope and anticipation but now unbearably quiet.

It’s the practice of taking photos with awareness and intention. You notice what’s in front of you, what captures your attention and make an image.

Grief may change the shape of a family, but it doesn’t have to tear it apart. With care and compassion, families can find ways to cope.

For men, carers, fathers, and those living with loneliness, these feelings can be especially complicated, often going unrecognised and unsupported.

When grief in the workplace is unsupported, it doesn’t disappear—it compounds. Employees may show up physically but feel disconnected.

The one thing I wish people understood about grief and loss is this: grief doesn’t follow a timeline.

During Dying Matters Awareness Week, we are reminded that how we treat grief reflects the kind of society we are building.

Our specialists have all weathered their own rough waters, and that’s what makes their support real, grounded, and deeply human.

Grief is not linear. It is not tidy. It does not follow five clear stages. We each grieve in our own way, in our own time, and often more than once for the same loss.

Grief Tending is a practical approach to working with all kinds of loss, change and suffering, including bereavement.

When a friend dies, it hurts. Deeply. And that pain deserves to be acknowledged.
