Bereavement Support
Families may encounter a bereavement of a family member or close family friends. If you would like further support , please refer to the website links below and some examples of helpful books which can help you and your child/children deal with their loss.
Grief is a very personal experience, and every child will experience it differently, give them space to process their feelings in their own way. Whilst doing this it is important to remember to take care of ourselves when supporting bereaved children, and seek support.
