Anam Cara

Anam Cara have developed a range of bereavement support services for bereaved parents including support groups, bereavement talks, a book of remembrance and video resources.

Their innovative online video vignettes resources give bereaved mothers and fathers the opportunity to hear an experienced bereavement professional, who is also a bereaved mother, talk about parental grief, the challenges and milestones. Ultimately these Anam Cara resources are about giving recently bereaved parents hope, that they too will find their own unique coping style and resilience to the intense grief that follows the loss of a precious son or daughter. 

In 2020 Anam Cara adapted swiftly to Covid 19 in communities and have moved all their support services online although there continues to be a telephone support line available. In 2021 they continued to build online support and resources which will run alongside their Anam Cara Groups which restarted in September but are subject to Covid restrictions.
