To mark our 10th anniversary, we are launching a new annual Bereavement Matters season - a national awareness campaign running throughout November and December. This initiative will seek to enhance the grief and bereavement awareness weeks, themes and opportunities throughout the period, recognising the importance of responding well in our society.

The season will:

• Shine a light on the realities of grief through real stories of loss, highlighting the wide-ranging impact of death on individuals and communities

• Amplify key moments, including the Church 'Season of Remembering’, Remembrance Sunday, Children’s Grief Awareness Week and National Grief Awareness Week

• Help people find support in the lead-up to and over Christmas - often one of the hardest times of year for those who are grieving

• Spark conversations about death and bereavement

• Promote the importance of support.

A moment to gather

We will launch the season at a special 10th anniversary Evensong at St Paul’s Cathedral on 30th October, bringing together bereavement services, national and community leaders, dignitaries and public figures committed to change.

Tickets are available now.
