Guy’s Gift will be closed from lunchtime on Christmas Eve, until Thursday 2nd January 2025.

If you get in touch with us in the meantime, we’ll get back to you as soon as we can when we reopen in the new year.

For now, we wish you all a pleasant New Year break.

We were recently invited to an event hosted by The Brother’s Trust, where a number of Guy’s Gift families headed down to Battersea Power Station to a screening of Spider-man: No Way Home.

On Tuesday, some of the Guy’s Gift team headed over to Codemasters in Southam to prepare for the Lantern Walk happening this Sunday.

Today marks the beginning of Children’s Grief Awareness Week 2024. This year’s theme is #BuildingHope, which we recognise is incredibly important when working with bereaved children and young people. 

This December, we are inviting families to come together for an indoor creative activity, followed by a lantern-lit walk to a place where we can gather and remember the person who has died. 

In light of World Mental Health Day this week, some of our team have visited Royal Leamington Spa College and Rugby College (both part of WCG) to raise awareness around the important service Guy’s Gift offer.

We wanted to say a huge “thank you” to our fantastic team of volunteers who took part in the Autumn Wolf Run to raise money for Guy's Gift.

On Saturday 13th July, the Guy’s Gift team ran a creative bereavement workshop at The Welcombe Hotel, Stratford at a Gambling with Lives residential weekend. The event welcomed families across the UK who have been bereaved of a loved one, following a gambling addiction.

Volunteers’ Week (3rd to the 9th June) is an annual celebration of the contribution millions of people make across the UK through volunteering - and in particular, we’d like to thank our wonderful team of volunteers here at Guy’s Gift.

SIX is a lovely number. We have ‘SIX’ the Musical, the Six Nations Rugby and hexagons are perceived as one of the strongest shapes due to equally distributing weight across the 6 sides. Our six might just top them all!

Our first group support sessions of 2024 are begining this afternoon in Willenhall.

Group support is a great way of helping children and young people recognise that they’re not alone with their feelings and emotions when someone important has died.

What a fantastic fundraising total, for Brindley Twist Tafft & James LLP.

The team took on Snowdon on 20th May 2023, and to date they have raised £2,640 pounds.

After the event, they shared…

This coming weekend (Saturday 20th May 2023), a team from Brindley Twist Tafft & James LLP will be hiking up Snowdon to raise funds for Guy’s Gift.
