The Hospice offers bereavement support services for adults and children. This is a free service which is offered to the next of kin and close family members of someone who was supported by the Hospice.

The first contact is usually by letter, six weeks after death, inviting the bereaved person or family to receive bereavement support. If support is not needed at this time contact can be made with the Hospice at a later date to access the service. Eight one hour sessions are usually offered which can be extended if necessary. Sessions are normally held at the Hospice.

Child support offered is for children in the family unit, including children and grandchildren of the deceased and is offered to children aged 4-18. They meet as a group once a month for a year and sessions last two hours, 4.30pm-6.30pm. Afternoon tea is provided and the children help to choose the activities offered.
