Loss and Bereavement Support Resources

Sometimes grief can leave you feeling overwhelmed. Our bereavement team created this list of resources and organisations to help you find the bereavement support that is right for you.

Bereavement guides

We’ve created these guides you might like to read in your own time to help bring some comfort and normalise your feelings.

Other organisations providing bereavement support

Griefchat instant chat service

This live instant chat service allows you to talk directly to a qualified, professional bereavement counsellor online. The service is completely free for anyone who has experienced loss and is available Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 9:00pm (excluding bank holidays).

The Link bereavement course

We created our Link group bereavement course to help those locally investigate the feelings of loss and bereavement and share experiences with others to help normalise feelings.

The course is free for anyone locally who has experienced loss and consists of five weekly group sessions run by our trained facilitators. The course is held at our head office in Reading.

Learn more about the course and if it could help you.
