Bereavement support services

Bereavement is the natural and painful process of grieving that follows the loss of a loved one. Without a doubt, it’s the hardest of times. However, talking about it with others and sharing what’s on your mind will always help.

Grief Chat

Created by bereavement experts.

We believe professional bereavement support should be free and accessible to all in need. That’s why we’ve partnered with Grief Chat. This gives you the opportunity to speak with a professional bereavement counsellor through live instant chat. It’s free of charge, Monday – Friday 09:00 – 21:00. The chat Box will pop up automatically on this page within those opening hours. It will invite you to have a conversation, should you need to speak to someone.
