Grief
Kind
Space
When Kevin Humble’s dad died suddenly of a stroke, he was left to look after his mum, and struggled to find time and space to process his own grief. Then he discovered Sue Ryder’s Grief Kind Space in his hometown of Cheltenham and decided to go along to one of the very first sessions in March 2023. Here he talks about his experience of attending the Grief Kind Space, and how it has helped him find the support he so desperately needed.
