How does it work and who is it for?
Here at Zephyr’s we run a monthly get-together for bereaved parents and family members who have experienced the death of a baby or child. Gathering together in the evening – in a small group and with a warm drink in hand – we gently encourage connection with others who have experienced loss and understand. Talking and conversation is never pressured, but you will be welcomed to share in a safe and supportive environment.
When and where?
We (usually) meet on the first Thursday of the month, between 7.30pm – 9.30pm. The address is By Our Hands Workshop, 42 Freckingham Street, Sneinton Market, NG1 1DQ. If you need help finding us, read more here. You can call us on 07915 995532 on the day of the session if you need to be in touch.
What is helpful to know before attending?
Our warm and friendly evening sessions are a chance to chat and be heard, to listen and feel supported. Our conversations are open and gentle – there’s time to be together, to borrow helpful books from our loss library, or simply to have some reflection time away from the group, to just be.
We recognise that coming along for the first time can be emotional, so please don’t hesitate to contact us if we can support you in taking those first steps to supporting yourself. We’re happy for you to bring someone along with you. You may wish to come together with a partner, friend, or relative, they are welcome to join us too. These sessions are supported by our volunteer Baishali and Carly our CE and Founder.
Please note these sessions are for bereaved adults only, and are on offer for those who are bereaved through pregnancy loss or the death of a baby or child. If you are looking for support on a 1-2-1 basis, please make an enquiry about our counselling service here.
