Wonderful news 🀩🀩

We are thrilled to announce that our most recent funding application has been successful and we are now funded to continue running Good Grief Soham up until October 2027 πŸ’›πŸ§‘β€οΈ

This time last year we hadn’t even launched the project and it’s incredibly moving to look back and reflect on how far we have come and the impact.

The aim of Good Grief Soham has always been to provide a safe and supportive space for those who are grieving, in an informal and welcoming environment and it’s so lovely to know we can continue to do this and to grow and build the support we can offer.

We have lots of exciting plans for the year ahead but at our core we remain committed to being there and listening to anyone who feels it might help them to talk about their grief.

Grief is not something to get over or fix but if we can walk alongside people on their journey, even briefly, if we can help people feel less alone in how they are feeling then that is worth its weight in gold to us.

We have had such incredible support from the local community which has meant so much and a huge thank you to Viva for believing in the project from the beginning and continuing to provide such a beautiful space for us.

Above all, I could not have asked for a more committed and caring team of volunteers, it has been a privilege working with each and every one of you this past year and sharing in such a special venture.

Good Grief Soham was never intended to be about me although ironically I would never have set it up had it not been for my own significant loss. So I’ll just say that the project has come to mean the world to me and been healing in ways that I had not expected. I’m so very thankful.

As we come to the end of another academic year it felt important to acknowledge that for grieving people the milestones that come with that can bring up difficult emotions.

At Good Grief Soham we recognise that feeling great joy and deep sadness can come hand in hand ❀️❀️
