Reflections on This Grief Thing In Preston

Reflections on This Grief Thing In Preston

By Amelia Ideh, Tue 16 Oct 2018

An excerpt from “A Space For Grief (This Grief Thing In Preston)” By David Harradine. This is our first shop. Before we arrive, we talk about what might happen. We acknowledge that nobody might come. We remind ourselves that we’re first and foremost trying to make grief visible, trying to refuse all the subtle and blunt and careless and well-intentioned and cruel ways it gets silenced and diverted and ignored.

We’re really keen to hear from all sorts of people about how easy or difficult they find it… Read More

Permission To Grieve

By Sam Butler, Thu 22 Feb 2018

We think it’s time to talk about grief. We have some experience: one who is grieving, one who is not. And neither of us feel confident in these positions, as friends, as a brother, sister, son, daughter, mother, nephew, niece, aunt, uncle, colleague, employer, employee, teacher, student, neighbour,,,,,,,,,,,,,, When death and therefore grief is the only certainty about being a human, a human who loves other humans, it is confounding when you start to think about our failure as a culture (my culture, I can only talk from this viewpoint for the time being) to know how to navigate IT….
