We are all deeply affected when someone we love dies. Grief is a normal response to loss but you may find talking to someone independent can help support you through your grief.
Bereavement care is offered to all families and friends of those cared for by KEMP or Macmillan Nurses. All aspects of bereavement care are offered free of charge and confidentiality will be maintained at all times.
We all react differently to loss and there is no right or wrong way to grieve, but grief can seem complicated and confusing. The close relationship between mind and body means that the psychological symptoms of grief can have a marked effect on the body.
We might get all the help we need from our family and friends, but sometimes this is not enough. No two people grieve in the same way and struggle individually to make sense of their grief, we cannot support one another as we might wish. It might then be helpful to talk to someone independently.
You can talk through any of your emotions and experiences with our bereavement care team, who offer Bereavement Advice and Support to adults, children and young people.
