How we can help

Support groups

The support groups are free.

Grief is heavy to carry on your own. The groups are small, quiet and open to anyone. Come once or come every time, and you do not have to speak.

  • Bereavement
  • Terminal illness
  • Baby loss
  • Child loss
  • After suicide
  • Living with grief

You do not have to do this on your own.

The first conversation is free, there is no obligation to go further, and nothing you say will shock us.
