Starlight Campaign

Campaign by Josephine's Star

Help us to keep helping children. Josephine’s Star is making an URGENT appeal, to raise funds so we can keep supporting the bereaved children who need us.

Josephine’s Star is a Somerset based charity that supports bereaved children with their grief We provide one-to-one support, based around six, one-hour support sessions. In each session we work with the child to explore their grief and help them to develop coping strategies. All of our work is done in conjunction with the families, carers and schools to ensure the most positive outcome for the children and young people. We are best described as a 'listening service' - we offer grief support not counselling. All services offered to children are free of charge

Story

Our Service needs your support.

Our primary service is 1-1 grief support. This consists of a minimum of 6, 1 hour face to face sessions. All the sessions use a mixture of talking and creative activities to enable children to express their grief in a safe and supported space. In addition we provide a “Little Bag Of Help” grief support tool to all children refereed to us. The Little Bags of Help contain activities and resources to support the child in the initial extrapolation of their grief.
