Story
Throughout 2024 we will be raising money for our chosen charity - Grief Encounter. This is such an incredible charity which help children who have suffered the loss of someone close to them.
They work closely with individuals, families, schools and professionals to offer a way through the anxiety, fear and isolation so often caused by grief. Their services include:
- One-to-one counselling
- Group workshops
- Music, art and drama therapy
- Residentials and Family Fun Days
- A National, free and confidential helpline called grief talk offering web chat service too
- Bespoke support for schools, universities and colleges
- A dedicated Trauma Team for support following a sudden or traumatic bereavement.
- Accredited training courses and webinars for professionals
- Award-winning resources including our unique Grief Relief Kit, Grief Encounter Workbook and Journal
We are an open-access charity, funded by the generosity of our supporters, and here to help alleviate the pain and confusion caused by the death of a parent or sibling. Bereavement is devastating at any age, but for a child it is life-changing
