A client of mine has set up a pet loss support group in loving memory of her dog Tilly. ❤️ I wanted to share this because I think it’s such a thoughtful and much-needed idea. We all know how deeply it hurts to say goodbye. The group runs free, online meet-ups where you can talk, listen, or simply spend time with others who understand what you’re going through. 😊 There’s no pressure to share; you can join in whatever way feels right for you. To learn more or join a meet-up, visit: www.petlosssupportgroup.co.uk 🕯️
