Supporting a child who's experienced bereavement can be extremely difficult. The aftercare we offer following the loss of a loved one is taken extremely seriously and we’ve invested a lot of time and commitment into making sure that children receive the same level of care and support.
In 2010, in partnership with Sudden (an initiative by the charity ‘Brake’) our Amy and Tom books were launched.
The Amy and Tom books are a tool for bereaved primary school aged children and are distributed free of charge to bereaved families, family liaison officers, schools, and medical professionals across the country.
Adults and children can read through the book together, helping the child to understand the unusual feelings they’re experiencing, and giving suggestions on how to cope.
