A moment for the grandparents, please 👵👴
We loved speaking to Ben, whose grandparents were such an important source of love, care, and inspiration ❤
Isabella's story
#CelebrationDay encourages us to celebrate the lives of those who came before us, including admirable historical figures who shaped the world around us.
Through our annual School Writing Competition with #TheDay, participants wrote stories around courage, and many of the submissions focused on the brave actions of people in history.
Winner of the 11 – 13 category, Isabella from Invicta Grammar School, did just this with her entry on #RosaParks and the courage it took for her to refuse to give a white passenger her seat.
Congratulations Isabella on your win and thank you for sharing Rosa Park's story and how her tale inspires you!

We are excited to announce our collaboration with National Trust to plant a new woodland in Greater Manchester in honour of all the lost loved ones we cherished and adored.
Finding ways to keep the legacies of our loved ones alive can be difficult in this ever-changing world, but through this new dedicated woodland, we can create a living legacy that will support people and nature for many years to come. We aim to keep growing this woodland over the years so we can secure the planet for future generations.
If you’re interested in helping create a living legacy in memory of someone you’ve lost, donate £5 via the link in our bio.

CD Vox Pop
#CelebrationDay is not only a day to remember the lives and memories of those you’ve loved and lost, but also an opportunity to reflect on the legacy you want to leave behind and how you want people to remember and celebrate you.
So, we ventured around the great city of London and interviewed passers-by, asking them why Celebration Day is important to them and how they want their loved ones to commemorate their life.
How do you want to be remembered one day? Let us know in the comments below.

We loved hearing about all the ways food brings families and friends together, even when celebrating someone who’s no longer with us 🧡
Did your #CelebrationDay plans feature food?
