MKFM was first to report on the charity hero discussed in new title.
The daughter of war veteran Sir Tom Moore has released her first book, describing the burden of grief and loss.
Hannah Ingram-Moore, whose father died in 2021 aged 100 at Bedford Hospital, says she hopes the new book ‘Grief: Public Face, Private Loss’ will help others going through personal loss, bereavement and the grieving process.
The book provides a raw exploration of grief, merging personal experiences with practical guidance to aid others in navigating loss. In it, Hannah recounts her mourning journey both privately and publicly.
It combines personal reflections, heartfelt experiences, and practical tools to help readers face the complexities of grief. It addresses societal pressures and emphasises resilience while honouring loss and love.
“This book is for anyone who has felt the burden of grief but struggled to express it,” says Hannah. “Losing my father publicly while privately mourning my mother showed me the deeply personal nature of grief and the importance of discussing it.
“My hope is that this book offers comfort, connection, and reassurance that even in loss, there is room for healing and hope.”
With a mix of candid storytelling and practical strategies, Grief: Public Face, Private Loss serves as a compassionate companion through bereavement. It challenges common grief myths, examines the struggle of balancing public and private mourning, and offers actionable steps to incorporate loss into life without feeling rushed to ‘move on’.
MKFM was the first news outlet to report on Sir Tom Moore, who raised £39 million for NHS Charities Together by walking 100 laps of his garden during the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020.
Grief: Public Face, Private Loss is available on Amazon priced £8.99.
