How to Navigate Grief at Christmas

It has now been 4 Christmases since we lost my brother Llŷr, and the Christmas season can still be incredibly difficult when you're missing a loved one. In this video, I try to offer guidance on how to cope with grief during Christmas, from my family's experience, as it's a time that can bring up deep feelings of sadness, loss, and loneliness.

I hope some of these tips can help you find ways to cope and take care of yourself this Christmas and I am sending lots of love.

If you’ve found any of the information in this video triggering, please remember that you don’t have to face things alone. Reach out to the Samaritans charity for support by calling 116 123 or visiting their website (www.samaritans.org).

You can also use the Hub of Hope (hubofhope.co.uk) to find local mental health support services near you. You matter, and help is always available.
