Once Upon a Smile was founded in 2011 to provide emotional and practical support to bereaved families after it became apparent that there was a lack of support for families after the death of a loved one.

The charity is the only bereavement charity in the UK to offer a variety of support to families through such a difficult time. Families are often left to grieve alone with no, or little support available and this can have a devastating impact on family life and children.
