As CEO of @Edwardstrust, I’m working to ensure more families across the West Midlands get the free, specialist bereavement support they need.

If you work with families, I’d love to connect.

@BarleyHill_Sch Thank you for an incredible end to the term for all years, but particularly Year 6! Have a lovely, restful summer - you all deserve it!

[Clare Martin @claremcreative]

@BarleyHill_Sch Very exciting!! Costumes on the way (sorry!)

[Clare Martin @claremcreative]

Honoured to meet today with @Edwardstrust’s founder Peter Dent and first CEO Christine Bodkin to talk about our future. 36 years on, the need is still great. The charity sector is tough, but with courage, compassion and your support, we keep going. #EdwardsTrust #LegacyAndFuture

Every so often, I sit with where @Edwardstrust began - with Edward, aged 7, who drew a pink kite that became our symbol. His courage still guides us. No strings attached - just support for as long as families need it.

It’s a little late in the day, but no less heartfelt - I’d like to wish a very Happy Birthday to my dear friend, mentor, and amazing Patron of @Edwardstrust, the very special @Judy_at_TW. A friendship that I appreciate dearly. I hope you’ve had a happy day, Judy x

@BarleyHill_Sch I can’t PM you for some reason so apologies for the public reply, but I have a spare ticket available still. Mr W was thinking of coming along to support the dancers, still v. happy for him to have it.

I picked up the most beautiful orchid gift yesterday when I was in the @Edwardstrust office. Our wonderful patron, and my friend @Judy_at_TW, always knows how to give a boost 🩷 Thank you so much! Xx

[Clare Martin @claremcreative]

@BarleyHill_Sch Thank you for giving them such a fun week - they’re very excited!

[Clare Martin @claremcreative]

@Judy_at_TW I’m the same Judy, and I really need to do it. Perhaps we can inspire each other to get started and keep going! x
