Glad it went well Matt. Saw the queues outside the Pirelli pre run! I also want to say thanks, cycling on traffic free roads between Stretton and Rolleston before the run started yesterday was a dream 👍

Community Development & Engagement Thank you Ian for all you have contributed and I’m sure will continue to do. I have learnt so much from you that has enabled new work supporting the dying and bereavement. You are inspirational 🤩

Community Development & Engagement We will miss you Ian. Thanks for everything you have done and for sharing your personal story with so many people over that 9 years and helping many more people than you could imagine.

Good luck John, been great working with you and the BACT team!

My penultimate morning at St Giles Hospice was spent in the community working with learning disability group Friends2Friends(F2F). Our final reflective session on grief/loss ended with an exercise that enabled the group to create a six line poem about Friends2Friends. They are all stars!
