Living more sustainably is something many of us feel passionate about, but how do we embed our values at those most challenging times?
In this episode we are discussing a sensitive topic, exploring the area of bereavement and how we balance grief with our personal values.
Where Does It Come From? founder Jo Salter discusses the topic with guests Claire Lyons and Simon Holden.
Claire has been writing and speaking on issues related to health, sustainability and family life for over 15 years. Since the death of her son in 2019, the focus has moved to the funeral sector specifically. Using other skills acquired over an eclectic working life, she writes for and supports businesses she feels share her passions
Simon is the Founder of the Faunus Group Ltd. He is passionate about the environment and has extensive experience in planning, project management and the application of research and development. Simon is also the CEO of The Woodland Burial Company and Natural Transitions. Both are focused on improving the impact of the funeral sector for people and planet.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
