Supporting the bereaved child

We know that during these challenging times, grief and bereavement will be especially hard.  Whilst many children and young people will be experiencing worry throughout these changing times, those who have experienced the death of someone close may have different, more severe anxiety and heightened emotions. They may feel increasingly scared that those closest to them will also die if they become sick with Coronavirus or as a result of delays in treatment for other illnesses.

This interactive webinar, led by Stacey Hart of Grief Encounter, will provide practical guidance to help you understand and support bereaved children returning to your schools. The webinar will deliver an overview of how grief affects children (of any age), young people and their families, with tools to help you understand the emotional and physical response to loss as well as how best to support children in the ensuing months.

Please note we are not able to provide a recording of this webinar however a copy of the presentation will be made available to participants post event.
