Hannah’s mum want to offer everyone the chance to participate in yoga activities to aid the emotions of grief. The Hannah Whitley Foundation CIO believes that yoga is a great healer and therapy to aid in the grieving process.
The objectives of The Hannah Whitley Foundation CIO as set out in the governing document are:
- The relief of persons suffering from sickness ,mental or emotional distress including ,but not limited to ,that arising from bereavement through the loss of a person (or anticipated loss thereof), through the practice of yoga;
- The preservation and promotion of good health for the public benefit through the practice of yoga.
- To provide free yoga classes weekly to those suffering from grief, stress and anxiety
- To provide free yoga classes weekly at Maggie’s to those affected by cancer
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
The charity has continued to run yoga classes during the year, which are held weekly at the studio together with weekly classes provided at Christie’s hospital.
Some comments by attendees include:
_“It is so amazing how you just came into my life at this moment in time. I feel very lucky having this support to deal with my grief this time round”_
_“I discovered this very special foundation in my councillor’s waiting room. A flyer caught my eye and it was just what I had been looking for. I had sought counselling following the death of my beloved father and I knew that I was going to need something more than just talking to see me through.”_
