This Grief Thing invites people to think, talk and learn about grief. It’s for people who have experienced grief, and for people who haven’t. Many people find it almost impossible to talk about grief. We don’t know what to say, what to do, or how to act. So we stay silent, we pretend that grief doesn’t exist, or we hide it.
Fevered Sleep will be welcoming anyone who would like to connect to the project into the calm shop space to think, talk and learn about grief. The shop will sell clothing, badges, bags and condolence cards which show words and phrases like ‘Make Space For Grief,’ and ‘Grief Is Like The Weather,’ or ‘Grief = Love,’ helping to start conversations about grief.
Fevered Sleep will also be hosting a series of Grief Gatherings at the shop. These gatherings bring people together in small facilitated groups to discuss their experiences of grief using items from the shop. You can attend with friends, family members, with colleagues or on your own. There is no obligation to talk, people are welcome to just sit and listen.
Grief Gatherings dates and times:
Friday 15 March 2019, 6:30PM – 8PM
Monday 18 March 2019, 10AM – 11.30AM
Friday 22 March 2019, 10AM – 11:30 AM
Attending a Grief Gathering is FREE but please e-mail Fevered Sleep to reserve your place as spaces are limited.
