Great to join the volunteers from @BethJohn64 for training on bereavement, ready for the launch of #bereavementhelppoints to support their local community.
Fantastic group of people committed to supporting people living with loss locally.

@nickhorner Sad news Nick - my first job was on the Observer news desk, when it was on Birmingham Road, more than 25 years ago. Brilliant paper, brilliant team and amazing community reporting for many, many years. Best of luck to all the team there.
Great to talk about life, death and community support via zoom with Tamworth Anker Rotary this evening.
Discussions around #endoflife care plans, bereavment and South Staffs End of Life Alliance.
This has to be the best thing I've been part of this week.
Our MS group has been meeting online throughout lockdown, with exercise, singing, mindfulness and a monthly quiz from group member Paul.
Brilliant to take part - even better to see the group enjoy it so much!
Working with staff from @the_atlp and our Phoenix young people's bereavement team, discussing supporting young people affected by loss.
Thank you to all the school teams involved for their thoughtful responses and sharing on our biggest online training session yet. #schools
Great to deliver bereavement training to the team @DenstoneCollege today. Lots of issues discussed from lockdown to international boarding students and impact of loss as part of all of it.
Thanks all for your time, thoughts and sharing. #bereavement#schools
A windy end to a very warm #solsticestroll with @CEOStGiles Love to have so many people say hello while we did our 10km round #suttonpark for @StGilesHospice Now cooling off with more ice cream!
Sutton Park is one of my favourite places so I'm looking forward to a #solsticestroll on Friday. I'm walking 10k to raise funds for @StGilesHospice and will be wearing orange (although I'm dodging a tutu!)
All support welcome and very gratefully received!

This #ThankYouThursday, we're feeling very grateful for our green-fingered fundraisers! 🎍
Many of our kind-hearted colleagues and supporters have been holding plant sales in their streets - from volunteer gardener Jeremy Blunt (left), to long-term supporter Arthur Tindle 🧡
Thanks to everyone @BurtonAlbionCT who attending our Bereavement training, exploring the impact of loss on families and young people in the time of Covid. 45 people trained over 3 sessions with the @StGilesHospice team and a wide range of issues discussed and debated.
