Resources to Support You
When You Are Bereaved and Grieving

The National Bereavement Service 
This is a great place to start for both practical and emotional support when you are bereaved.
​
Cruse
For over 60 years Cruse has been supporting those going through grief and loss with specialist trained volunteers. They a have help line where you can get immediate help. They also offer short term 1 to 1 support or group sessions.
 
The Good Grief Festival      
This a wonderfully supportive website giving insightful information about grieving and bereavement. It was started by two Doctors at Bristol University and began as an event where many experts in the field of loss and grief shared their wisdom on a wide range of issues. They also offer a large number of resources that you will find on this page.

The Good Grief Festival - Helpful Organisations 
I've also included this page from The Good Grief Festival because it is such comprehensive source of information about organisations that can offer support when you are grieving.

The Good Grief Trust
This is another great all-round resource to support you when you are grieving. As they say on their home page it is run by the 'bereaved for the bereaved' and offers 'help and hope in one place'.

Full Circle Funerals - Supportive Resources
Full Circle is Funeral Director in the area north of Leeds, who I have had privilege of working with often. I have included them here as they offer a rich array of support to those who are grieving. This includes podcasts and webinars on a range of subjects. They also have a keen awareness of the value of creativity to those who are grieving and run creativity workshops. If you are local to Leeds and the surrounding areas you might find these beneficial.
