T/W GRIEF 🤍

Grief Awareness Week is a time to reflect and share thoughts and feelings about our loved ones. By talking about them, we are keeping their memory alive. Grief is such a difficult topic to talk about, there’s such a taboo around it, but it’s inevitable and at some stage in all of our lives, we’re going to experience it. We are so thankful to some of our brave community members for opening up about their experiences and their bereaved loved ones.

⭐️ Cat’s Grief
⭐️ Fiona’s Grief
⭐️ Sarah’s Grief
⭐️ Emma’s Grief
⭐️ Lucie’s Grief

Through sharing these memories we hope you can connect, feel seen, heard and understood. Know that you are not alone. Grief is a profound topic and no grief is the same. 🕊️

We are honoured to be sharing these beautiful stories and pictures with you all, thank you.

SAY THEIR NAME…🧡 After losing a loved one, sometimes we can go days, weeks and even months without saying their name. We are often afraid to mention the person’s name who has died. We think we will upset our friends or family members, but it is usually the opposite 〰️ By saying their name, remembering them and talking about them, you are helping to share your love and affection for that person and also supporting others too. By saying their name you’re helping to keep their memory alive.

🕊️✨ Please leave a comment with your bereaved loved one’s name, let’s honour them together this Grief Awareness Week…

T/W GRIEF 🤍

In honour of Grief Awareness Week 2023 we asked our community if they would like to share their stories about their bereaved loved ones in order to break the stigma surrounding loss 💫To say their name, to share photographs, stories, advice and feelings relating to their grief.

Through sharing these memories we hope you can connect, feel seen, heard and understood. Know that you are not alone. Grief is a profound topic and no grief is the same. Opening up can be super hard but also really beneficial, whether that’s opening up on a journal entry, to your friends and family or a counsellor. We really are .

🕊️ Charlie’s Grief
🕊️ Zara’s Grief
🕊️ Lucy’s Grief
🕊️ Corey’s Grief
🕊️ Lucia’s Grief

Thank you so much to our brave community members for being so open about their experiences and honouring their loved ones this Grief Awareness Week and beyond 🫶🏼 We are so proud to be able to celebrate those who are no longer with us.

This is the first installment of a lovely collection of memories so please take care when reading our Grief Awareness Week posts, we understand this can be triggering and bring up lots of emotions and feelings. Reach out to those around you or seek medical help if you need support.

🧡🪽GRIEF AWARENESS WEEK 2023🪽🧡

Today marks the first day of our campaign for Grief Awareness Week. We thought long and hard about taking part in this campaign and decided that this year it was the right time for us to open up more, share our losses as a community and break the stigma surrounding bereavement and grief.

This year, the topic for Grief Awareness Week is and here at NEFE we are honoured to be sharing our wonderful community members stories as well as our own in a fight to tackle the taboo and to educate others about grief and the impact it has not only on our mental health but physical health too.

Lots of people are unaware of the bereavement services available including counselling, helpful Instagram pages, podcasts, community groups etc. That’s why we’ll be sharing some helpful information that we have learned from our own experience and also some tips to navigate the build up to Christmas and the New Year too.

As many of you know, I lost my Mam, Suzanne, in August 2021, who was 53 years old to COVID-19. It’s a loss that nobody should endure. It was a tragedy, so sudden and so heartbreaking. Still now, a little over 2 years on I find her loss so horrendously difficult to talk about what. I don’t have any close friends who have lost a parent or who can relate but I have definitely found a lot of solace in my community and meeting others who have lost a close loved one.

As impossible as reality once felt, I’m here living it. Everyone in this world will experience grief one day, it’s inevitable. Nothing can prepare you for it, but know that your grief is and always will be valid and you CAN talk about it. Say your persons name. Share happy memories. You shouldn’t feel ashamed to grieve. Grief lasts forever. It’s part of you now. And that is OK.

I read a quote that said: “Grief doesn’t get better over time, you just get better at managing the pain.” and for as long as I’m managing it, I will be here trying to make a difference.

Thank you for your support with this campaign, stay tuned for lots more information and content coming up.

Have you ever fancied creating your own Christmas bauble? 🎄❤️✨ Well, here’s what a workshop with .writes.designs looks like…

Earlier this week we were invited down to for a Calligraphy Christmas Bauble making class and it was super cute! We have previously ordered the most beautiful, personalised baubles from Rebecca and have wanted to attend one of her workshops for so long so we couldn’t wait to get creative! ⛸️❄️🩵

The class included Calligraphy practicing, painting our own designs, festive sweet treats, mulled wine and bubbles! Accompanied by all of the Christmas music and amazing company too.

We were given free reign to choose a design and the wording and colours for our Christmas bauble 🎅🏼🥂🍪 We decided to create a very special decoration this year in memory of our lovely Mam who passed away in 2021, it may not be perfect but it’s magical for sure ☁️🫶🏼🤍

If you’re interested in trying out a new skill involving calligraphy, we highly recommended Rebecca and her events! Rebecca is super chilled, super fun and super helpful 〰️Calligraphy may seem a little scary, but as the old saying goes “practice makes perfect” and even if you don’t think your writing is up to scratch, that’s the point! You have stepped out of your comfort zone and are learning a new skill, it’s pretty therapeutic too ✍🏻

Rebecca offers a range of different products including the most incredible baubles, commission work, engraving and more. Be sure to check out all of her wonderful work! They are the perfect Christmas gift 🎁 Huge thank you to .writes.designs and for collaborating on a fantastic workshop, we can’t wait to put our handmade bauble up on our tree and cherish it forever ⭐️

I’m honoured to finally share that a little over a year ago, I was approached by LJ Ross’ team to feature in their “North East Heroe’s” blog to share my journey so far with NEFEMPOWERMENT, my love of the North East, the small businesses I adore and more 〰️

✨ For those of you who don’t know, (seriously, where have you been hiding?), Louise Ross, aka is a multi-million, international, bestselling writer from the North East of England. Best known for creating atmospheric mystery and thriller novels, including the DCI Ryan series of Northumbrian murder mysteries which have sold over 8 million copies worldwide. Incredible right?! A wonderfully talented woman paving the way in the North.

This was honestly a real *pinch me* moment and I found myself thinking “am I really a North East hero?” and “what qualifies as a hero?”, after lots of pondering I took the leap, stepped out of my comfort zone and couldn’t be more proud of myself for doing so.

Huge thank you to the brilliant portrait photographer for the professional shots. We met up at (one of my favourite businesses mentioned) over a coffee and for her to snap some images of me, I was super nervous and Donna really put me at ease 🫶🏼

It’s a little strange for me to be infront of the camera in this way, as it’s usually me interviewing the inspirational people from the region and working away behind the scenes, so it’s lovely to share a little bit more about myself in a very honest way.

I’m feeling SO overwhelmed to finally share this with you all. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to my magical community, without you moments like this wouldn’t be possible 🤍
