Trying to make things better around loss and grief

[Deborah Meaden 🇺🇦 @DeborahMeaden]

Rhodes is burning...What really matters is not that a Tourist playground burns, its the animals burned, wildlife lost and Nature destroyed...but out headlines talk of cancelled flights and holidays. If we think this is inconvenient..you wait to see the inconvenience of climate refugees, lack of food and water....floods, droughts and war....but lets just carry on leave that to our kids to deal with.

Remembering the magnificent wings that we used to have on the North Inch? Well, we have them on a banner. #ToAbsentFriends #SelfieWings @truacanta @HellyMacG

Great to see a lovely #ToAbsentFriends display of books on grief alongside the stall and the words the people of Dundee have found comforting in grief @SaySthingDundee @LynnMrsgriffin @funerallinkscot @DVVAscot @LifeDeathGrief

To absent friends tonight in Perth. Thank you @PerthandKinross for the lovely orange bridge beside the lanterns of remembrance of love and loss. @2AbsentFriends

[Discombobulated @emmabest2000]

Time to chat for @2AbsentFriends 2022. Great to see our friends from @theneukperth @LighthousePerth and our deputy provost. No strangers to the pain of loss and the trauma of grief, we listened and we remembered.
