We were so pleased to be joined by Linda Magistris, founder of The Good Grief Trust, at our Oxton natural burial ground today.

In conversation with our co-founder, Helena, Linda shared more about the trust’s “Sit With Hope” campaign, which aims to provide clear, easily accessible signposting to tailored grief support.

There’s a beautiful synergy between The Good Grief Trust’s campaign and our burial grounds, which invite people to return again and again to walk, sit and remember their loved one. Do keep an eye out for the Sit With Hope plaques we are installing on benches at all of our natural burial grounds.

As Helena says: we can’t take grief away, but we can help people feel seen, heard and understood, and make vital resources like The Good Grief Trust simple and straightforward to access.

Thank you to Linda for your time today, we will be sharing more from this campaign soon. 💚🧡

Grief Works is a collection of stories from those who have “experienced great love and great loss - and survived.”

Collected and contextualised by esteemed psychotherapist Julia Samuel, Grief Works gives voice to those things we are often scared to say or simply can’t find the words for and lays them bare, examining them through a lens both analytical and empathetic.

This month’s book is a personal recommendation by our co-founder, Helena. Grief Works was one of the first books she felt able to read in the aftermath of her own devastating loss, and found genuinely helpful.

Organised into chapters dedicated to forms of grief, Julia’s book gives us unfiltered access into the experiences of other people as they navigate paths that may be familiar to us.

It’s honest, insightful, teaching and deeply human. Most importantly, it’s a book you can pick up and put down, reading chapters that are most relevant to you or someone you are supporting.

The full review is live on our blog, including links to purchase Grief Works.

This weekend The Sunday Times Magazine featured a front-page article titled “What should we do with mum’s ashes? She didn’t tell us.”

Journalist Harry Wallop met five families facing the big decision. At Tithe Green, this question is one we encounter most days. Millions of families around the UK have ashes in their care and don’t know what to do with them - perhaps unsure what feels right, or having been left no instructions by the deceased.

Whether it has been five weeks or five years, it is never too late to lay your loved one to rest. At Tithe Green, natural burial of ashes occurs within wildflower meadows or woodlands - peaceful, beautiful places families can return to again and again to walk, sit, and remember.

We are encouraged to see this question posed in mainstream media, and more confident than ever that natural burial offers many of the answers families are looking for. The full story is on our blog - tithegreen.com/blog - or at the link in our bio.

A small in honour of all the babies who died too soon.

Thinking of some words from Grief & Co | Grief gifting for when you don’t know what to do: “It doesn’t matter how early or how long. Your love was real, and so is this grief.”

And from Zephyr's Nottingham: “Whether you light a candle this evening for yourself and your baby or your babies, or whether you light it in memory of someone else, know that this light connects you to others and that you are not on your own in remembering your precious loved ones.”

Sending love and warmth. 💚

If you feel you don’t have a village, you can be part of ours 💚

Some of the most cited words we hear when talking to people who are grieving is “lonely” or “isolated”. There are two main forms of loneliness: social and emotional.

Social isolation means that we might be without a support network. Perhaps we live far away from family members, or our social circle is small. Perhaps our friends are busy with their own lives and we feel we don’t want to “burden” them.

Emotional isolation can occur even when we have a big, supportive social network or community. Perhaps it feels like the loss hit us the hardest, or our life has been fractured by the loss more than anyone else’s. We can still feel lonely and misunderstood even when surrounded by people we know love and care for us.

Our memory mile walks and guided grief groups are designed to speak to both dimensions of loneliness, and all the myriad ways we might experience them. Time in nature, walking alongside others who understand, and total acceptance for whatever you might want to share.

Your grief is intensely personal, but you don’t have to face it alone. We can never take it away or fix it, but we can provide time & place for a community to gather and feel, even just for a moment, socially and emotionally connected to others who understand exactly how they feel.

First Wednesday of every month, 10am. More information at the link in our bio or on our website.

One year ago our co-founder, Helena, had an idea.

What if we invited our community to join us for a walk around our burial grounds every month?

A chance to spend time in nature, stay connected to the land, and walk alongside others who understand.

From there, our monthly ‘Memory Mile’ walks were born. In all weathers, from cold misty mornings to hot dry days, joined by new friends and four-legged friends, we have gathered on the first Wednesday of every month to spend time in two of the most healing forces we know: nature and community.

Over the last year our groups have evolved into something very special, and we are now joined on our walks by bereavement specialists who facilitate gentle conversations around grief over a warm drink and a biscuit.

Grief doesn’t end after a funeral, and neither does our support. Our monthly walks are drop-in sessions - you are welcome to join whenever you like and there is no expectation to talk.

First Wednesday of every month, 10am:

Nottingham: NG14 6NZ
Leicester: LE67 9TB
Peterborough: PE9 3RN
County Durham: coming soon to TS28 5NR

You are welcome exactly as you are. 💚

Meet the team - Andrew 💚

What is your role at Tithe Green?

“I work in grounds maintenance, helping to look after and maintain the natural burial ground as the site manager for Blue House.”

What does an average day entail?

“It’s really varied – everything from grass cutting and strimming to woodland work, planting, maintaining paths and generally keeping the site looking its best while still keeping its natural character. I also work with Funeral Directors to support families on the day.”

What is your favourite part of the job?

“Probably the variety and being outdoors. No two days are exactly the same, and it’s nice being able to see the difference the work makes while helping keep the site natural and well cared for.”
