Groups
We host two peer support groups:
The groups are free and have a relatively fixed membership of 10-20 parents each. This allows for the members to get to know each other over a period of time and develop a sense of belonging. We meet every alternate week on the said days on Zoom.
Mentoring
In early bereavement, our grief needs more attention. It needs to be witnessed closely and repeatedly. Hence it is important to give it the time and attention it deserves. It’s difficult to say how early is ‘early’. Generally, the first two years are considered to be extremely challenging and hence during that time, 1-to-1 support is very valuable. However, that does not mean that you may not join a group but it may be less suitable.
