Story

This September (Shitember) it will be 40 years since my Mum passed away and 3 years since my Dad . So I’ve decided to do something positive this year and throughout September, I am joining Grief Encounter's Step-tember Challenge, walking 300,000 steps in one month to raise funds for bereaved children, young people and their families across the UK. You can learn more about my challenge here: 

https://www.griefencounter.org.uk/event/steptember-challenge/100% of the funds raised will go towards supporting bereaved children and young people who have experienced the death of someone close.  Grief Encounter offer professional support services online, including group workshops, individual e-counselling and memory workshops for all of those who need them. They can't do that without your support. Just £26 could fund a helpline session for someone impacted by grief, offering them immediate help and advice following a bereavement. Thank you for your support.
