About

Grief Notes was commissioned by Hope Support Services and Hospice UK to break down the stigma around hospices, death and dying amongst young people who have experienced the loss of a parent, or parents who have a terminal diagnosis.

We laugh, we sing, we cry, we dance, we think, we discuss, we write, we feel, we are united by our shared human experiences.

The project consisted of a series of drama, movement and music sessions with a group of 12-25 year olds, to provide an opportunity to express emotions, connect with stories and share a safe space with others.

The sessions culminated in a new performance piece with the young people from Hope Support Services which was shared as part of the charity’s 10th birthday celebrations at The Courtyard in January 2020.
