British influencer and makeup artist Lottie Tomlinson has been announced as an ambassador for national healthcare charity Sue Ryder, encouraging ‘more people to speak openly about grief and to raise the profile of the free video counselling service provided by the charity’.

Tomlinson, who’s lost both her mother and sister in the last five years, said ‘You need to keep talking about it otherwise you get lost in your feelings and that can send you into a really dark place. I can’t imagine how hard it’s been for people grieving during lockdown and that’s why I really want to spread the word about Sue Ryder’s free video counselling’.

Sue Ryder is a British palliative neurological and bereavement support charity based in London.
