Bereavement Support

We are all going to experience the death of someone we know as we move through life. When someone we know and love dies, it can be a traumatic time. We are all different and will all act differently as we begin to grieve.This page is for you to try and find support at a very difficult time.

We have tried to make this page suitable for children and parents and carers. Children if you need support from us you can email us
