Hi, I have decided to run the Edinburgh marathon this year for Richmond's Hope. They are a charity we used for Michael last year and they have really helped him understand and come to terms with his grief. A bit about them Richmond's Hope began in 2003. They work in a purpose built playroom where children and young people are helped to rebuild their lives after the death of someone they loved. Aims - To make Richmond's Hope a place where bereaved children can work through their grief and have the support, information and help to allow them to manage the impact of death in their lives;
- To enable the children to express and understand their emotions, and work through their grief using verbal and non verbal ways, in the safe environment of Richmond's Hope;
- To increase bereaved children's self esteem by enabling them to meet others and share experiences;
- To increase public understanding of the social, practical and emotional needs of bereaved children, their families and other caregivers;
- To create individual programmes of care for each child (Each child's grief is different);
- To be a project in which local people, carers, schools and other agencies will have complete confidence
