Story

I have been touched by grief and know the difficulties of coping with it as an adult. Imagine if one of your parents had died while you were a child. The other is trying to cope with everything and support you. Perhaps the wage earner has gone. Your heart is broken. Nothing makes sense any more.

Well, your giving has been great... so far... but if the giving gets over £400 John will also have his COVID pony-tail cut off!

Winstons Wish support children, young people and their families after the death of a parent or sibling. This is one of the most traumatic situations a child can face, but with the right support at the right time children can go on to lead full and flourishing lives.To raise vital funds for the charity and help to ensure that grieving children get the help they need when someone close to them dies, Im joining the team on 18th September to take part in a Firewalk!. Please help me to raise as much as I can and give hope to bereaved children. Thank you.
