Death Notifications/Bereavement admin

  The only organisation offering peer-to-peer support to all those over the age of 18, impacted by suicide loss in the UK. We help those bereaved by suicide to support each other, at the time of their loss and in the months and years that follow. We are a self-help organisation and we provide a safe, confidential environment in which bereaved people can share their experiences and feelings, so giving and gaining support from each other. We also strive to improve public awareness and maintain contacts with many other statutory and voluntary organisations.

We offer peer led support groups, online virtual support groups, a national telephone helpline, online community forum and email support. We offer a unique and distinct service for bereaved adults across the UK, run by the bereaved for the bereaved. Suicide recognises no social, ethnic or cultural boundaries and neither do we. Our helpline and groups are open to all survivors of bereavement by suicide aged 18 years and over.

Norwich has a support group meeting the 2nd Wednesday of every month.

Has someone you love died, recently or maybe a while ago?  Are you still grieving, or perhaps you feel alone? Has life lost it's happy moments without them?

We are a group of qualified bereavement support workers who are holding drop-ins every Friday between 10.00am - 12.00pm at King's Lynn Quaker Meeting House, 36 Bridge Street, PE30 5AB.

You will find a warm welcome, coffee/tea & biscuits.  We offer group-work and individual sessions - whatever suits you best.  You don't have to be a person of faith, but you might be. You won't be questioned or judged because our experience of the variety and sometimes complicated feeling around bereavement, helps us support you, and maybe give you friendship and hope.  Come and join others who maybe feel this way too - a problem shared is always easier to bear.

THERE IS NO CHARGE FOR THIS SERVICE.

The Anne Robson Trust is a pre-bereavement charity that offers company and support to anyone facing the end of life themselves, or those who are dealing with the death of a loved one. 

They have recently launched a telephone helpline service to help bridge the gap that has been created by the pandemic in accessing these services, and to meet demands for the increased support that is now necessary due to the higher number of people who have suffered a loss throughout the pandemic.
