Bereavement Help Point

We run Virtual Bereavement Help Point sessions every week.

These sessions are open to anyone who would like to join with others who have experienced loss. They provide an informal space where the subject of death and bereavement is addressed
openly and empathically.

The sessions are facilitated by volunteers who offer advice, guidance and a listening ear. Feel free to drop in and find out more about bereavement services in your area.

If you would like to join us or find out more abut these virtual sessions, you can register below.

The Bereavement Help Points are places where public can access information and guidance on bereavement services within the area that they are situated. They are staffed by volunteers who have experience dealing with the bereaved and are therefore able to listen to visitors as well as help them understand and ‘normalise’ the feelings they are having.

The drop in Bereavement Help Points are weekly 2 hour service in various locations. These sessions enable members of the community to access a wide variety of services and also gives a regular point where the subject of death and bereavement is addressed openly and empathically in an informal setting.

Visitors support each other and often visit regularly in order to meet up with others who share their feelings and understand what they are going through particularly in early grief when formal services are not available generally.
