A big shout out to Hideout’s Chloe Cooper for her creation of BBC Wales Growing Up with Grief documentary. Honest, raw and ultimately hopeful, the film explores what it means to navigate profound loss while coming to terms with adolescence.

Growing Up with Grief - Chloe Cooper

Chloe lost her father at 13 years of age. Through intimate reflections, family conversations and interviews with those who supported Chloe, the film examines the impact of grief on a young girl’s development.

I truly hope this documentary reaches those of us who are grieving and brings even the smallest sense of comfort, connection, and hope

If you didn’t see it when it aired on April 13 you can catch it here on BBC iPlayer. Highly recommended!
