Local charity space2grieve is opening a new drop-in bereavement café at Whitton Community Centre, Percy Road, Twickenham (TW2 6JL), giving anyone living with loss a free and informal space to talk, share and connect.
The first session of the new Compassionate Cuppa café takes place on Tuesday 6 October, from 10 to 11.30am. After that, sessions run on the first Tuesday of every month. There is no booking process, no referral needed, and no requirement to have experienced bereavement recently — the café is open to anyone navigating loss, whenever it happened.
space2grieve already offers free, confidential one-to-one bereavement support for adults, children and young people across the Richmond borough, so the Whitton café extends an established service rather than replacing it. For residents who find structured counselling a step too far, the drop-in format may feel more approachable.
For those who cannot make it on Tuesdays, the charity can be reached by phone on 07519 376363 or by email at support@space2grieve.org.uk.
