## Summary

Charmaine George, 52, was found dead on Portreath beach in Cornwall, near the place where her son Ewan died six years earlier. Her death has renewed attention on her work helping bereaved people, while the cause remains unknown and an inquest is expected.

George, from Pool near Redruth, opened a grief café a year after Ewan, who was 18, died in 2020. She helped establish Good Grief Pop Up Cafes and received the Caroline Flack Mental Health Hero Award in 2021. An inquest into Ewan’s death found insufficient evidence to conclude that he died by suicide; investigations into George’s death are ongoing.
