You'll then be invited to add simple hand embroidery, creating a unique textile piece inspired by your own memories, reflections and the person you are remembering.Working alongside others, these individual pieces will become part of a collaborative textile artwork for permanent display in The Grief Garden, bringing together many stories of love, loss and remembrance. Through mindful making, conversation and time spent in the garden, we'll explore how creativity can help us honour the people we miss.No experience of embroidery or textile making is needed. Elnaz will guide you through each step, and all materials will be provided. Whether you choose to chat as you work or quietly immerse yourself in the process, you'll be welcomed into a supportive environment where your experience of grief is held with care.The workshop will take place from 10.00am–1.00pm at The Grief Garden, with a shared lunch included. If you'd like to spend more time in the garden afterwards, you're warmly invited to stay for our gardening session from 1.00–3.00pm.Getting hereIf driving: Please park at Wood Hall Hotel (LS22 4JA) and walk to the Walled Garden.

In the garden, people are welcome to express and explore their grief in ways that feel good to them, whilst designing, producing and caring for an evolving garden for the emerging community. Those who are experiencing grief are invited to attend a weekly gardening group and become a part of a peer to peer support group of budding horticulturalists. The Grief Garden also hosts a variety of different events and workshops and hopes to normalise conversations about death and grief within society." } ] } ] ```
