Our community support and activity INITIATIVES

Enjoy a deep relaxation experience, allowing yourself to let go and harness the power of sound and vibration, and encourage more flow into your life. 

The sound helps to rebalance and revitalise helping you to release and reset. This is an opportunity to help you reduce stress, manage anxiety, and even pain.

We are trialing the benefits of chair yoga for people experiencing grief, loss and bereavement.

If the session is well attended, we will work with Sarah to provide the yoga on a regular basis 

We know that people in rural communities need access to support and how important it is to make new relationships on our bereavement journey's...we also know it is a varied personal experience so we trialed an informal drop in friendship and support group from Barnstone Community Hall, NG13, which unfortunately wasn't too well attended, due to this our sessions are currently on hold, but we are not giving up and are evaluating this provision for 2025.  We ran this on a Sunday afternoon to capture a majority of people working in the week, but we would more than welcome your feedback, ideas and thoughts on this. 

Join our team of volunteers and make a difference in the lives of others. We have a variety of volunteer opportunities available. Sign up today!

We funded a specific 6 week facilitated closed group for people to safely explore their grief and loss.  Clare, an experienced bereavement facilitator ran the sessions from November - December 2024.  Our next 6 week programme is due in early 2025. 

We are running a pet loss friendship group from Lowdham WI Hall every 3rd Saturday in the month.  The sessions will be an opportunity to meet people experiencing the loss of their beloved pet, validate loss and share memories.

We are researching how and where we can support national suicide prevention strategies to look at ways of offering activities and support for people bereaved by suicide.   We have personally worked predominantly in the construction industry to address suicide prevention and reducing the stigma, mainly in construction and the male workforce.  We are also based in a farming and rural area, which is another area of employment regarding high suicide statistics; we are looking at ways to offer engagement in a confidential and safe space locally to all.  We need your feedback to help us to shape this and get some support to people that need it.

Have a question or want to get in touch? We'd love to hear from you. Contact us today and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
