Each year in Victoria, many families experience this trauma. Since our inception in 1978, we have helped thousands of families following the death of a child. We have a 24hr grief support line, face-to-face support groups across Victoria, send out newly bereaved packages to grieving families and anniversary cards to members to show their loved one is never forgotten.
Your generosity will allow us to continue providing support to grieving families by offering friendship, understanding and through this, provide hope of rebuilding a life without their son or daughter, brother or sister or grandchild in it.
We know that when grieving people receive caring support, their long-term emotional wellbeing is greatly improved. We also know that many people feel uncertain about how to support someone who is grieving, worried about what to say or upsetting them. This leads to people saying inappropriate comments or worse, to avoid the grieving person completely, leaving them isolated in their grief.
Education makes such a difference.
With education, the uncertainty of knowing how to support the bereaved is removed, creating better support systems within the community and reducing the traumatic isolation of grief. Your support can help make this difference.
