View grief toolkitGrief is complex, it’s complicated and it’s messy. Whilst everyone grieves differently there are some common threads and themes it can be helpful to know. Our live talks are free, online information sessions led by a bereavement support worker. They cover the impact of grief, common feelings and ways to cope. We run talks for grieving young people aged 16-25 years old and for parents, carers and other family members supporting grieving children and young people.
