Grief does not end when the hospice care does. Our bereavement team offers compassionate, ongoing support to families in the weeks, months, and years after a loss — because no one should grieve alone.
Our bereavement services are available to all families who were supported by our hospice team, and to members of the wider community. All services are free of charge.
Confidential sessions with a trained bereavement counsellor. Available in person, by phone, or online. Sessions are typically 50 minutes and offered over six to twelve weeks.
Facilitated group sessions for people who have been bereaved. Sharing your experience with others who understand can bring enormous comfort and reduce isolation.
Our bereavement team contacts all families at key intervals after a death to offer support, listen, and signpost other services. You do not need to ask — we will reach out to you.
Help navigating probate, registering a death, arranging funerals, and managing the administrative burden that arrives at the worst possible time. Our social worker is here to help.
Grief is not linear, and it is not the same for everyone. These are the general phases many bereaved people experience — though your own journey may look quite different, and that is normal.
Many people feel a sense of disbelief or unreality, even when a death was expected. The administrative demands of those early days can actually help by providing structure and purpose.
As the shock lifts and support from others begins to diminish, the full reality often sets in. This can be the hardest period — one reason our check-in calls happen at this point.
Grief becomes something to be carried rather than overcome. Good days and bad days become part of daily life. Many people benefit from counselling or a support group during this period.
The first anniversary of a death, birthdays, and family milestones can be particularly difficult. Our team is still here — you can always call us, even a year or more after the loss.

Thank you for reaching out. A member of our bereavement team will contact you within two business days at the time you specified. You don't have to be ready — we'll follow your lead.
