We have lots of new #Grief Cafes popping up which is fantastic. When my son Jack died I was told I would have to wait 42 weeks until I could speak to anyone because of waiting lists. I made a promise no other grieving person would Grieve alone. Would you like one in your area?

Fabulous conversation this morning with the lovely Babs Michel on BBC Beds, Herts & Bucks talking all things Tony Hadley, 80’s Smash hits magazine, posters, and me being a brosette with Grolsch Bottle Tops 😂Thanks Matt Goss but why the bottle tops? 🤔 What posters did you have on your wall?

In her CIPD Voice article, Claire McCartney discusses our recent Parliamentary event, supported by Lucy Herd Lucy Herd, @PGibsonSNP and Lord Knight of Weymouth, looking at the issue of extending bereavement leave and pay. 👇 cipd.co.uk/news-views/cip…

Thank you for all you did your Majesty. Thinking of the Royal Family on this very sad day. The grief that is being experienced is heartbreaking and my thoughts are with all those who loved her. I’m so very sad about Queen Elizabeth II Death may you rest in peace #QueenElizabeth

It’s always been about the Rainbows since Jacks Death 12 years ago. A sign of HOPE and knowing God and Jack are watching over us. I hope the rainbows bring as much comfort to the royal family at this very sad time. #QueenElizabeth #grief #londonbridgehasfallen

Feeling Sad and that’s OK #QueenElizabethII #grief

It’s always been about the rainbows since Jacks death & to see 1 over Windsor castle when the Queen died brought home the importance of HOPE. Rainbows bring me comfort and belief that GOD and Jack are always watching over me. I hope the The Royal Family take comforter on the Rainbows
