Grief Disco
Dance, connect & shake off your grief on the dancefloor
Welcome to Suffolk’s first Grief Disco
St Elizabeth Hospice is offering you the opportunity to dance, connect and shake off your grief on the dancefloor with a great club atmosphere.
Guest DJs will be on the decks, creating an uplifting experience designed to move body and soul. Your host, Chris, will be holding the space throughout the event to support and uplift.
Our Rituals Room is a chill-out area where you can take part in some simple rituals to honour your grief and celebrate loved ones if you wish.
Plus, we will be offering a non-alcoholic bar to keep the energy flowing.
Please note this event is for over 18s only.
What can I expect at the Grief Disco?
Grief comes in many forms. Maybe you’ve lost a beloved person, animal, or part of your life. Maybe a friend is struggling – this could be a wonderful way to support each other.
Grief is still a taboo subject for some. We are breaking this taboo with the power of music.
We dance to remember, not to forget.
We dance not to escape but to connect.
We have both experienced significant loss in our lives and have found healing in coming together to dance, find joy and connect with ourselves and others on the dance floor.
We are building a community to create a positive and uplifting experience for anyone who is grieving and who would love to feel this connection with others who relate.
