A support group specialising in *Loss & Grief *Miscarriage & Stillbirth *Pregnancy & Child Loss *General Bereavement Support *BAME Health Inequalities *Training
Started this year with exciting goals & a fab vision board. If you haven’t done anything yet, it’s helpful to clarify what you’re wanting to bring into your life this year.First reflected on what I was grateful for in ‘22 & then looked at different aspects like health, career etc
FYI if you know anyone that has experienced a #stillbirth, the @leedssanctuary in-person craft & creative sessions are starting on Saturday (21/1) @Oblongleeds from 10:30am - 12:30pm. The Zoom sessions were very open & safe. Sometimes doing an activity is easier than talking 💚
Every 24 hours we need to re-up:
1. Sleep
2. Morning Sunlight
3. Exercise
4. Nutrients (even if from body stores)
5. Water
The fact that we can survive >24hrs without one or several of these, is irrelevant. Health flourishes when we make getting all 5 of these a daily priority.
Love this and highly recommend following this account and signing up to the Positive News newsletter emails. If you’re only following or reading mainstream media you’re only getting part of the story… In whose interest are some of those stories? 🤔
We supply our Good Grief cards to other charities to support their work.
Thankyou @MadeMarkCharity for including our cards in your memory boxes to help signpost families to a choice of bereavement services that suit their own particular needs To order: https://t.co/SmgNkyj0wH
Hello #Leeds I’ll be handing over to the next curator later. Highly recommend doing this as a bit of fun & to connect with our wonderful city. I find this cartoon helpful to understand others. Socials can bring out defensiveness in us so please bear this in mind #KindnessMatters
A school in Dallas put out a call for stand-ins to attend a breakfast for young boys, many of whom didn't have father figures of their own. They thought a few dozen people would come.
More than 600 dads showed up.

Every year the Blue Monday hashtag trends, and we’re fed up with it – it’s a completely made up concept! We’re determined to knock it off the top spot with Brew Monday instead! Stay tuned for more info 👀

If you witness a cardiac arrest, it is important to call 999 and start CPR straight away.
Remember:
Rate - 2 compressions per second
Depth - push 5 to 6cm down on the chest
Don't stop - until help arrives or the patient regains consciousness
Know how to perform #CPRAnywhere.
