Our bereavement support and grief advice
We’ve brought together Co-op’s Funeralcare professionals and charities to provide practical advice on dealing with issues such as grief, coping with your loss, supporting others and choosing keepsakes.
Cruse Bereavement Support
We've worked with Cruse Bereavement Support to create a series of guides to help you navigate grief and find support during difficult times.
Losing someone special
We don't necessarily have to be related to someone to feel grief when they die. Learn about ways to cope when experiencing the loss of anyone who matters to you.
Support following a bereavement
After the death of a loved one, many people can experience loneliness or feel socially isolated. If you, or someone you know, is experiencing these feelings and would like a guide for supporting yourself and others with grief, we've worked with Cruse Bereavement Support to create some resources.
Mental health support
At Co-op Funeralcare, the service doesn't stop after the service, and we want to make it easy for you to find the support you need. If you need someone to talk to following a bereavement then help is available both from local groups and Cruse Bereavement Support.
Supporting others
It’s sometimes hard to know what to do or say when someone else is experiencing the grief of bereavement. We’ve got advice that will help others to cope.
