While X has been a valuable platform, we believe our time is better spent engaging through other channels to focus on meaningful conversations about natural burials and the environment 🌿

At #Bath Burial Meadow this morning, we were shocked to find a #protest/#ritual/#vandalism.
We want to talk to the people who did this, so we can understand the meaning of it. Why was the burial ground chosen? Did they consider the impact this has on families?
PT1 Everything that goes into the ground at our natural burial grounds must be biodegradable and of a natural material, in keeping with our ethos. 🌿🍃
There are now many different types of eco-coffins & shrouds. Find out more in the Advice section on https://t.co/JrOkB33PKa
Thankyou @NaturalBurials for raising awareness of our charity & supporting your bereaved families.
They say;
‘I was chatting to someone the other day and mentioned The Good Grief Trust Umbrella Pins. It was something they had not heard of before. Please be kind and patient if you see someone wearing one of these pins.
It may be something they are wearing in remembrance, but it could also be because they have recently lost a loved one. In the midst of grief, even simple everyday tasks can feel overwhelming. Wearing this pin is one way we can share that we are having a difficult day when we are grieving. Unless we know what it means, we don't always understand it, but it can help us to be more understanding. ☂ 🧡
If you feel one of these would be helpful for yourself or for someone you know is struggling you can find them on the good grief website, along with support and advice that may be helpful when grieving the loss of a loved one’
