Bereaved by Suicide Support Group
The loss of someone through suicide can have a huge ripple effect.
This support group endeavors to meet the needs of individuals by providing
emotional support to those affected by such a loss.
Why a support group?
A support group can provide reassurance that people are not alone in their experience in a safe and respectful environment.
It provides an opportunity for people bereaved by suicide to get support along with others who may have had a similar experience.
To enhance understanding of the nature of grief and find ways of coming to terms with the loss of a loved one.
To help people maintain personal wellbeing.
The group meets fortnightly the year round on Tuesday evenings at the ACROSS office.
This support group is facilitated by a trained Counsellor and is a confidential programme.
Enquiries from anyone wanting to know more about the group, and/or wishing to attend
