Can you help us launch a creative grief programme?
Born from our very own Emily’s experience of losing her wonderful Mum last year, we are raising funds to bring a twice monthly creative wellbeing programme to grievers in Wigan and beyond - free to attend, open to all. We were lucky to have Alicia join us at many creative sessions here at Everyday, so having her memory help to bring more creative joy to our community just feels right.
You can see more of Em and Alicia’s story through Mutti Tomatoes brilliant project, . Their shared love of Mutti has not only given Em an everyday reminder of her Mum’s belief that ‘working-class people deserve nice things’ but also provided the generous backing of Mutti Tomatoes and its marketing agency jellybean creative solutions for the creative grief programme! Later this year, with this donation we are launching our pilot creative wellbeing grief programme but we still need your help to get the full project running.
Grief is something most of us carry quietly. In many communities - including here in Wigan - there are no support groups that use creativity as a way of processing loss. A donation no matter what size helps us get one step closer to starting the programme, we understand that times are difficult right now financially, so even just sharing the GoFundMe makes a massive difference! Every pound raised goes directly towards running the twice monthly sessions - covering materials, facilitators, and keeping the space free and welcoming for all participants.
So please share far and wide and donate if you can, you can read more about the project plus Em and Alicia’s Mutti Love Story at the GoFundMe link here: https://gofund.me/654194166
A huge thank you to Mutti Tomatoes and jellybean creative solutions for sharing Em and Alicia’s story through Mutti Love Stories and being founding partners for our creative grief programme.
