Whether the death was sudden or expected, the organisation works with all the family to create an atmosphere in which grief can be shared and the child supported. This is done through group work and individual sessions.
The Winston's Wish national family helpline can be contacted on 0845 20 30 40 5, and is open Monday to Friday between 9.30am and 5pm.
A catalogue listing the range of books and resources available can be ordered by calling the organisation or through its web site, which also has interactive pages to help grieving children.
