Five Things.

Sharing our stories is not only helpful for people going through something similar, but it can be healing in itself. Our pain being acknowledged, our experience being ‘seen’ and our voice being heard is cathartic.  Knowing that we are not alone, knowing that someone else is living through something similar, understanding that there are a multitude of ways to cope, finding out that you’re not the only person in the world who is struggling, resonating with someone else’s experience – all these shared experiences help.

Five Things is a collection submitted by people with lived experiences of illness, cancer, dying, funerals, grief, suicide, baby loss, addition and so much more. We’re always looking for people to share their experiences with us, whatever it is they’ve been through.
