Support for Children and Young People

We offer children a series of 1 hour one-to-one sessions, where they can explore their grief in a safe space and learn to develop individual coping strategies. Our trained volunteers provide a relaxed, fun environment to help children understand their loss and the emotions that surround it.  Each session is tailored to the individual child and uses a mixture of talking, listening and creative activities to encourage children to express their grief, explore their memories and talk about their loved one. Our work is best described as listening service, please be aware this is not counselling.

If you feel we can support a child who you know please complete the referral form below.
