The positive feedback we receive from our monthly Meet 'N' Grief sessions is always great! These sessions provide a safe space for young adults, who have lost one or both parents, to connect with others who have gone through similar experiences. Putting yourself out there and signing up for something like this can be intimidating, but the feedback we get is amazing. In this month's session, we will be discussing the topic of 'talking about your grief', you can get free tickets or find out more here: https://lnkd.in/eNfxNVhj #peersupport #grief #griefsupport #HR
Our world completely stops when we experience a bereavement. However, the working world keeps on spinning. On top of everything else you are dealing with, the last thing you want to think about is whether you’re meeting KPIs or smashing your monthly goals. And these feelings aren’t limited to a certain time frame around your loss. Whether your loss happened last week, or ten years ago, it is normal to go through periods of intense grief throughout which you must juggle conflicting priorities at work and in your personal life. - A snippet from our recent blog post 'The Elephant in the Office: Why We Need to Talk About Grief at Work' by our volunteer, Katie.

RSM Reading has been an amazing support to us this year. They are close to winning an additional £10,000 in funding for our charity, which is incredible! Can you help us reach our goal? This funding will enable us to continue our mission of supporting young adults who have lost one or both parents. It allows us to provide support groups, events, and free group therapy, making a significant impact on the lives of many young adults who are struggling with grief. If you would like to help us win, follow the link to their JustGiving page; https://lnkd.in/eNszsRH4 And as always, a big thank you to Faye Rota and the Reading team for their continued support! #charitypartner #fundraising #RSMtogether
We built It’s Time based on our lived experience of losing one or both parents as a young adult. We understand that losing a parent young is a life-changing experience that comes with a unique set of challenges. Whether it’s university, having children, changes in your career or friendships, there are so many changes happening when you’re a young adult, and combining this with the loss of a parent can be extremely difficult. You’re often the first one in your circle to go through this kind of loss, which can leave you feeling isolated in your grief. Support groups tend to focus on other age groups and it can be hard to find community, which is why we started It’s Time.

Here's a reminder that grief can manifest in various ways, not just through sadness and tears. This is especially important to keep in mind when you have colleagues or team members who are grieving 💭 #workplaceandgrief #grief #HR #employeesupport

I will be participating on this Walk In Memory for It's Time Charity, a charity that supports young people that have lost a or both parents. Between the 14th and the 20th of October, I plan on walking 54km to represent my mum’s age at the time of her death, when I was 19. I see this as a great opportunity to honour her memory and help a cause that is dear to me (and get my steps in!). If you would like to support this challenge by donating, please check out my JustGiving page: https://lnkd.in/eMJSj56v
Fundraise for It’s Time by taking part in our annual Walk In Memory!☁️ The Walk in Memory is a week-long event, starting on the 14th of October. We recommend walking* a distance equivalent to your parent's age at the time of their passing for a week. *You could also cycle, run, swim, wheel or even use a treadmill! Then on the 20th of October, we will be hosting a group 15km walk in London to represent the 15% of people that will lose one or both parents before they turn 30. This is a chance to reach the end of your goal surrounded by others who have been through similar experiences.
