Bereavement support for families grieving the loss of a child

The following bereavement charities all offer help, support and information for parents, siblings and other family members who are grieving the loss of a child. All the helplines are run by trained parent volunteers, who themselves have sadly experienced the loss of a child. Many of the websites have sites specifically for siblings to access support. Others run online forums, providing bereaved families the opportunity to make contact, share experiences and offer support to one another.
