Understanding bereavement
Join us to look at how we are affected by bereavement, and share ways to cope with loss. Whether you're a carer who's lost someone, or you can see that your role will be coming to an end, this session will provide insight and support.
Understanding bereavement
Bereavement affects us in many ways: physically, mentally, emotionally and socially. We can also feel grief for the loss of a family member, even while we are still caring for them.
Angela Higgins, Bereavement Co-ordinator at The Bereavement Centre, will help to explore how caring for someone with a long-term illness or with dementia can create conflicting feelings. This is a chance to talk about the fatigue carers can feel and the mental, emotional and social effects of grief, both in anticipation and after a bereavement.
Join us to explore this together and to share ways to cope with loss.
This will be a video meet up using Zoom and is open to all our registered carers although spaces are limited.
If you’ve not used Zoom before, we have a handy guide below which will talk you through it.
