Bespoke bereavement training for organisations
Winston’s Wish provides bespoke bereavement training to give professionals the skills and confidence to support grieving children and young people in their care.
Bespoke training for organisations working with children and young people after a bereavement
Does your organisation work closely with children and young people? Are you and your colleagues confident about supporting children during or following the death of someone close to them? We can offer bespoke childhood bereavement training to your organisation to help you better support the bereaved children in your care.
We will work closely with you to ensure we meet the specific needs of your organisation and the children you work with. We have extensive experience delivering training to schools, youth groups, local councils, hospices, foster care agencies, and healthcare professionals, including ICU and palliative care, and many more.
A very informative and interactive session… Providing us with useful information which we can share with relatives… Staff now feel more confident, it was very empowering.
The activities and coping strategies we learnt were brilliant. It’s often hard to know what to say to the remaining parent, but I will definitely share these ideas with them and know that it will be useful.
