Celebrating 10 years of The Good Grief Trust 🧡☂️

As part of our work with The Good Grief Trust, some of our colleagues had the privilege of attending a special 10th anniversary event at Westminster Abbey on Wednesday.

The evening, organised by Linda Magistris OBE, Founder of The Good Grief Trust, brought together some truly inspiring individuals, including Dame Penelope Wilton, Patron, Greg Wise, Ambassador, and Rhian Mannings MBE, Founder of 2 Wish Charity, alongside many others who have used their own experiences of loss and grief to help and support thousands of people.

It was a powerful evening, celebrating 10 years of recognising the gaps within the bereavement system and working to ensure people can find the help, support and hope they need when facing loss.

Congratulations to Linda and everyone at The Good Grief Trust on 10 incredible years. Thank you for the difference you continue to make for so many people experiencing grief and bereavement 🤍

Sometimes, an interruption can change everything.

A message. A phone call. A conversation. Sitting beside someone. Asking, “Are you okay?”
When someone is struggling with suicidal thoughts, these small moments of connection can create a pause, an opportunity to interrupt those thoughts and remind someone that they’re not alone.

You don’t have to have the right words, and you don’t have to be an expert. You just need to care enough to reach out.

This World Su***de Prevention Day, let’s look out for the people around us. If something doesn’t feel right, start the conversation. That small interruption could make more of a difference than you realise.

💛 If you’re worried about someone, don’t be afraid to ask.

If you or someone you know needs someone to talk to, Samaritans are available 24/7 on 116 123.

Keep loved ones close with a Memory Pebble 🤍

These beautiful glass pebbles are hand-blown, with gorgeous hints of colour and soft sand running throughout. Designed to sit perfectly in the palm of your hand, they are wonderfully tactile and can hold a small token of a loved one’s ashes or a lock of hair.

Available in a beautiful range of colours and designs, each pebble is unique and can be chosen to reflect the person and memories you hold dear.

A secure stopper keeps the keepsake safely enclosed, with the option to seal it for added security and peace of mind.

A small, personal keepsake to hold, treasure and keep your loved one close 💫

If you’d like further information or to see the full range, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Standing proudly in the centre of our cemetery is the main war memorial.

Erected on 22 February 1917, while the First World War was still raging, because it wasn't a post-war memorial — people were still being killed when it was put up. It is now Grade II listed by Historic England.
It was commissioned by the East London Cemetery, rather than being a conventional memorial to one particular regiment or group of local men this memorial is in remembrance of every person who lost their lives or their loved ones. This memorial is for everyone touched by war.

The principal inscription says:
“To the memory of the sons of the British Empire who gave their lives in the cause of righteousness, freedom and honour in the War”

A truly remarkable piece and we are proud to have it
