The group is not about teaching you anything! I am finding my way with a life-limiting diagnosis and I don’t have the answers! The aim of this group is to provide a space where we can explore together how to navigate this liminal space, balancing life and death, hope and reality, joy and grief. 

The group is an inclusive space, where everyone’s uniqueness is celebrated – you are welcome just as you are, however you are. Everyone is welcome, people of all genders, ages, beliefs, ethnicity or life experience. We will have a set of guidelines for the group to ensure that everyone feels heard and valued.

Each session will have a different theme, or question to explore. We will hold sharing circles where we sit in witness to one person at a time. Few opportunities in life allow us to be fully heard and it can be very empowering. There will also be open discussions where we can learn from and be inspired by each other. 

Receiving a life limiting diagnosis can be an isolating experience, even for those with a good support network. It can be difficult to talk to family and friends, as they often want to “fix” us or find it facing the future too painful to talk about. The group will connect you with others who, whilst not in the same boat, at least are on the same sea!
