Motherless Day

For many, Mother’s Day is a difficult occasion rather than a celebration. 'Motherless Day,' hosted by The Parentless Club at the East Room, provides a safe, compassionate space to acknowledge that grief. This event is designed to help attendees reclaim the day through connection, creativity, and shared experience.

What to Expect This is a 'pity party' you actually want to attend—a morning dedicated to honouring the moms who are no longer here. The gathering features a variety of grounding activities, including memory collaging, bracelet-making, and guided breathwork. These creative outlets are designed to keep hands busy and hearts open, fostering an environment where stories can be shared and memories can be reflected upon in the company of others who truly understand.

Why It Matters Navigating loss on a day that is culturally focused on celebration can feel isolating. Motherless Day offers a reminder that you are not alone. Whether you are attending to honour your mother, to connect with others, or simply because you need a supportive place to be, this gathering provides a meaningful alternative to the traditional Mother's Day narrative. The event takes place at the East Room on Claremont Street, a welcoming venue perfect for this intimate and reflective morning.
