This Grief Gathering is a small, free group conversation led by BrumYODO and based on the model created by Fevered Sleep.

People experience grief in many different ways and some people find it harder than others to express. Fevered Sleep describe a Grief Gathering as an ‘invitation to think, talk and learn about grief, whether you have experienced it or not’. It is not intended as a support or counselling group.

This gathering will be hosted by BrumYODO members Alison Cox and Debbie Kerslake.

This event will last approximately 1 ½ hours, takes place on Zoom, and is free to attend but booking is essential.

With thanks to Fevered Sleep for their support.

As this is a small group event with limited spaces it’s important you reserve your space here.

This event is part of the online programme for this year’s A Matter of Life and Death Festival, our annual arts and culture event aiming to encourage conversation about death and dying.

This year’s festival will also include In Memoriam an open-air art installation outdoor artwork will be sited in the grounds of Aston Park from 8-16 May (in line with Government guidance) and an invitation to people across Birmingham and beyond to take part remotely by creating a personalised In Memoriam flag.
