Child Bereavement UK

Child Bereavement UK supports families and educates professionals when a baby or child of any age dies or is dying, or when a child is facing bereavement. Every year we train around 5000 professionals in contact with grieving families.

In the UK when a baby or child dies, or a child is bereaved, many of those affected are unable to access good quality support which meets their individual needs. Child Bereavment UK believes all families should have the support they need to rebuild their lives when a child grieves or when a child dies. Or aim is to make sure they do.
