A big box of new Swan Song flyers arrived today!
I am looking forward to taking them to the hospices and other places we work. Hopefully they help lots more people to write their Swan Songs.

Let us know if there's anywhere you think our flyers should be.

We had a very special guest in one of our songwriting sessions this week.

This is Bracken who is a good boy and features in a Swan Song we are working on. He brought a lot to the songwriting session and is always welcome back in the studio.

On Wednesday I am doing a talk for Child Bereavement UK and I wanted to share a story of some of the younger people we have worked with. It made me think of this lovely video some of our newer followers might not have seen before.

"It's been wonderful"

Listen to "Wonderful" written by John Smith, Hannah Dilworth & Al Bampton at St Gemma's Hospice, Leeds on our website now.

It's a beautiful song about Love and Faith.
