Bereavement support

Bereavement is a normal and natural response to death and most people who experience it come through safely with the help of family and friends. But for some, who experience more complicated grief, they may need professional support. Bottled up, these emotions can have damaging psychological, emotional and physical consequences for individuals, their families and society as a whole. As well as 1-1 emotional wellbeing and bereavement support, we offer information and advice for professionals.
