Bereavement Support

Our Bereavement Support Team understand what life can be like for a family after a child dies. 

We are here to help you through the days, weeks, months and years ahead. From help with practical issues such as funeral arrangements, emotional support or simply someone to talk to, the team are there for you every step of the way.

We offer free bereavement support to your family for three years and three months after your child has died.

Families of all faiths and backgrounds are welcome. You do not need to have used our services in the past. We provide support whether your child died at home, in hospital, at The Ark or elsewhere.

Our dedicated bereavement support worker will be with you throughout your journey with grief. We will tailor our support to your needs, whether that’s by offering practical or emotional support or simply being a listening ear. There is no right or wrong way to grieve after the death of a child, and we’re here for you no matter what you’re feeling.
