Over the last few months I have been lucky enough to have had support from Butterflies giving me the opportunity to talk to someone, make sense of and deal with the emotions that came with loosing my Mum.  

The anger, sadness and grief are overwhelming at times and meeting once a week gave me a place to discuss, understand and figure out how to deal with them.

They have helped so much and as a way of saying thank you I wanted to do something to raise money to support and help Butterflies to continue the good work they are doing for people who, like me have lost someone very special.  

Meanwhile I have taught myself how to use my Mums sewing machine, and I actually really enjoy it! Some of it’s questionable but bunting turns out pretty well - and who doesn’t love a bit of bunting 😀. 

That’s where Bunting for Butterflies came about, making bunting for people to enjoy while raising money for Butterflies - win win.

Butterflies Bereavement Support was founded in 2016 to meet the growing need of supporting people through bereavement and loss.

We help people over the age of 18 who live across Hampshire & The Isle of Wight.
