Connecting students &
softening the impact of
grief in universities

I want to send my love to all those mourning around the world; I want to show my solidarity with all the people caught in oppressive and violent systems; and I want to share a couple of thoughts in relation to grief.

To commemorate her new book, Rachel Wilson shares some thoughts on grieving as a young adult. It’s a period in our lives that is ‘meant’ to be full of opportunity and exploration, but can be incredibly isolating and overwhelming when you’re facing loss.

Last week I was contacted by the BBC to speak about student bereavement. Yes, this is in response to the loss of two students in Nottingham, but it is also about the thousands of students experiencing grief every day.
