Join our one-off
themed meet ups

Alongside our location-based meet ups, connecting young grievers in their local area, we are proud to run one-off meet ups on particular themes. Talking through the taboo of grief means having difficult conversations and connecting grievers in unique ways. Stay tuned and get in touch if you have a theme you'd like to discuss.

Upcoming meet ups

We’re busy organising lots of themed meet ups which will be announced here very soon. If there’s a themed meet up you’d like to attend or help run, get in touch with us.

How to join these unique meet ups

Why are you running these meet ups?

We love meeting people in our location-based meet ups, but we know that sometimes it’s helpful to chat to people who you are similar to for a different reason, such as the type of bereavement you have experienced. They are not replacing our location-based meet ups, they are running in addition!

Is there a specific themed meet up you’d like us to run?

We are committed to running meet ups that make everyone feel safe, included and heard. If there is a particular themed meet up you’d like us to run – either if you’re happy to facilitate, or you’d just like to attend – then please let us know and we’d love to work with you to make it happen. 

 

How can I join in?

Each meet up will have it’s own joining details – the easiest way to find them is to email meetup@letstalkaboutloss.org and someone will get back to you. Alternatively, just use the Contact Us form below and we’ll be happy to help out!

Who can join?

We these meet ups are online, anyone who is aged 18-35 and fits the specific criteria of the meet up can join. Please don’t join if you don’t fit the criteria as these are safe spaces e.g. if you’re interested in suicide bereavement, but haven’t been bereaved yourself to suicide, it’s not appropriate for you to join a meet up for those who have experienced suicide loss.

MEET UP FAQs

How will I know where you are?

Our meet up Hosts will be wearing white t-shirts with Let’s Talk About Loss written on them, so you can spot us in a crowd!

Will everyone be sad?

Definitely not. Although we’ve all been bereaved, we aim to have lots of fun at meet ups and chat about lots of things, not just grief. You won’t be asked or expected to share your grief story unless you want to.

What will we do?

Most of our meet ups are activity based, so we are doing something and not just sitting around chatting. We hope you’ll have lots of fun!

How do I sign up?

You don’t need to tell us you’re coming along – feel free to just turn up! If you want to chat to someone before coming along, email us using the form on this page, and we can always meet you beforehand.
