Unlike our monthly drop-in Bereavement Café, places on the Bereavement Group need to be booked in advance.
You’ll meet with the same people each week over six weeks. Meeting regularly with a small group can help you build trust, share experiences and explore grief in more depth.
Open to anyone aged 18 or over who’s experienced the death of a loved one from an incurable illness more than 12 weeks ago. Your loved one doesn’t need to have been cared for by us.
What to expect
- A small group of up to six people
- Gentle discussions and activities
- Different themes each week
- Time to talk, listen and reflect
There is no pressure to share personal experiences. You can take part as much or as little as feels right for you.
Why do I need to wait 12 weeks?
The first few weeks after someone dies can feel overwhelming. There is often a lot to manage emotionally and practically.
Waiting at least 12 weeks gives you some time to take those first steps through grief before joining a group. You may find our Bereavement Booklet helpful during this time.
When you feel ready, we’re here for you.
