What is Child Bereavement?
Child Bereavement UK helps families to rebuild their lives when a child grieves or when a child dies. We support children and young people (up to the age of 25) when someone important to them has died or is not expected to live, and parents and the wider family when a baby or child of any age dies or is dying.
We offer free, confidential bereavement support for individuals, couples, children, young people, and families, by telephone, video or instant messenger, wherever you live in the UK. We also offer face-to-face support from several locations.
We welcome families and individuals of any gender or gender reassignment, marital or civil partnership status, disability, race, religion, faith, belief, or sexual orientation.
We will endeavour to source interpreters / BSL interpreters where needed / possible.
Our Charter for Bereavement Support Services provides our statement of how Child Bereavement UK aims to support bereaved individuals, couples and families who come to us for support.
