Friendship provides comfort through mutual understanding and trust. It involves sharing life's difficulties and joys with others who will listen without judgment, encourage you during hard times, and help carry your burdens. A genuine friend divides problems to lessen suffering and multiplies happiness, offering permanent commitment through both good and bad times. In contrast, a casual friend may only be present for enjoyable moments and leave one alone during struggles. True friendship forms the foundation for meaningful relationships.

The document discusses partnerships that South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM) has formed to promote recovery from mental health issues. It provides several examples of successful partnerships between SLaM and other organizations like charities, non-profits, universities, and community groups. These partnerships allow SLaM to expand its services and provide additional support to patients through activities like volunteering, peer support, arts programs, gardening, and SLaM's Recovery College, which was founded on principles of co-production between patients and clinicians. The document argues that the best partnerships are built on shared vision, mutual trust, and recognition of each partner's contributions.
This document discusses self-concept and how it is shaped. It explains that self-concept is determined by factors like gender, culture, roles, and status. Parents, teachers, and peers all influence a person's self-image as they take on different roles in life and groups. Gender stereotypes are also discussed, noting how they can shape communication styles and expectations. The document emphasizes that understanding cultural diversity is important as cultures influence beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors in different ways.
This document defines key concepts related to social groups and societies. It discusses that a social group requires membership, interaction, and a shared identity or sense of belonging. It also defines primary groups as small, intimate groups like families, secondary groups as more formal and task-oriented like coworkers, and reference groups that individuals compare themselves to. The document also covers in-groups that individuals feel closeness to and out-groups they distinguish themselves from, as well as concepts like conformity, leadership styles, and problems like groupthink that can arise in groups.
Researchers studied four groups - volunteers/charity workers, people taking educational classes, those participating in religious organizations, and those participating in political or community groups. They found that only participation in religious organizations was linked to sustained happiness and joy over time. The document encourages forming small groups to study relationships principles from the Bible over 7 weeks and attending Sunday services for messages about love and rebuilding love.

The document discusses the importance of service learning and the author's experience volunteering with two non-profit organizations, Room for Grace and The Beacon Rescue Mission. The author learned that through service, one can gain empathy for those less fortunate and experience personal growth. Volunteering provided opportunities to apply classroom concepts to real-world situations and gain practical skills. It also allowed the author to hear people's stories and better understand that anyone can experience hardship. The author was surprised to receive support from the organizations and come to appreciate what really matters in life. Overall, service learning opened the author's eyes to new perspectives and reinforced the importance of helping those in need.

The document discusses factors that contribute to successful change agents or "boat rockers". It identifies four key things: 1) having a strong sense of self-efficacy or belief in one's ability to create change; 2) being able to join forces with others to take action; 3) being able to achieve small wins which build momentum; and 4) viewing obstacles as challenges to overcome rather than barriers. Building self-efficacy involves tactics like starting with small, achievable changes and reframing failures as learning opportunities. Social support and learning from exemplars are also discussed.
The document discusses how change is happening more rapidly, with projects now lasting 30-60 days rather than years. It also discusses how power is shifting away from hierarchies and centralized control to networks and relationships. Leaders are needed who can operate from the "edge" and empower others through open relationships rather than closed transactions. Rebels are needed who can disrupt and challenge the status quo in a responsible way to drive innovation and new ways of thinking.

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels as the heart pumps it. Hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, brain disease, kidney disease, and premature death.

3. 3. What isThe Hospice Buddy Group?
1. A non-formal bereavement and social group
2. It offers a warm welcome to bereaved caregivers
who would value social contact and support
3. Person’s who attend find it beneficial talking to
other carers who understand the mixed emotions
bereavement brings
4. 4. Social Inclusion Cohesiveness & Social Capital
• We have seen many friendships form
and there is mutual support within
each group
• Linking up in smaller groups or
making one friend
• Bowling, fly fishing
• Dog walking
• Trips to cinema, theatre, coach
excursions
• Members invite other bereaved in
community to social events and
promote buddy group concept
• Regular coffee morning, lunches
• enjoy the challenge of discovering
new places, pubs and tearooms
5. 5. Why Buddy Group was Initiated?
• Caring long term for someone can be isolating and being out
of the loop of friends and family
• This can diminish people’s confidence
• The Buddy Group was initiated with the hope and aim to
encourage bereaved people to find a positive way forward
with support and friendship
• Sharing experiences of caring and the grief that comes when
a loved one dies can often help people find a way forward
after death has occurred.
• The hospice was reluctant at first as it felt people may be at
different parts of their journey and that some may need a lot
of support at the expense of others
6. 6. Pilot Buddy Group 1 Sept 2008
1. During a ‘CarersCourse’ it was identified that spouses were dying at
the same time and wanted to continue meeting after death
2. The support they gave each other was compassion and
understanding of each others grief
3. It was apparent that they had developed a strong relationship
4. This highlighted that friendships can develop between strangers
within a range of ages who are within a similar caring role
5. Therefore it was recognised that sharing experiences during
bereavement helped them get back in the social networks as a
single person with new friends
7. 7. Naming the Group
The pilot group chose
to name ‘The Buddy
Group’
The term ‘friendship’
or ‘bereavement’
did not feel
appropriate for
them
12. 12. Hospice Safe Place
• Meeting at the hospice
gave them a safe
environment to express
their emotions
• Having, been in a long
relationship for several
years some people struggle
going out alone
• Bereaved women in
particular do not like going
to the theatre or coach trips
alone
13. 13. Observations – benefits
• If carers attend a group they cope better with end of life
(e.g. Carers Course and Family Group)
• Less isolated and less lonely
• If they attend Buddy Group - bereavement pathway is less
arduous
• Bereavement team state that referrals are reduced
• They support each other through illness , death and dying
• E.G. supporting one member who is recovering from a
stroke
14. 14. Observations
• More confident supporting other bereaved persons and
what to ‘say and do’ (and do not avoid them on the street)
• Less men attend than women
• Some leave a group to join a later group
• Some have attended two groups as monthly too long to
wait
• Groups work better in smaller groups of 16 members for
example
• Within all the groups they still remain friends either in small
groups or couples
15. 15. Empowerment , Capacity Building and
Community Development
• Volunteers now facilitating the Buddy Groups
• Volunteers showing interest in further training e.g
bereavement course
• Volunteer Companions supporting Family Group

17. 17. Attrition Rate
• Big groups are daunting
for some and prefer
‘one to one’ or small
groups
• Commitments – work
or family
• Too soon and not
returned
• Access to transport.
Hospice cannot offer
service.We do suggest
attendance as sharing
lifts is offered between
Buddies
• Men leave – not enough
men
18. “Going out with family and friends
without my wife, they didn’t want
me to talk about her as they felt
uncomfortable. I felt like I was
playing gooseberry. I liked to talk
about her with happy memories too
I can do this in the Buddy Group”
18. Quote 1
19. “We are all at different stages of
grief and understand what we each
go through. It is normal to grieve
I don’t need counselling, just
empathy and sympathy from
someone who has been through a
caring role and lost a spouse
through death”
19. Quote 2
20. “I am able to talk about my
spouse. It is hard to go out with
friends who are couples. In the
Buddy Group we are new friends
sharing grief, memories and we do
not feel so isolated”
20. Quote 3
