ADULT BEREAVEMENT GROUPS
Facilitated by trained counsellors, bereavement groups are therapeutic groups in which those present have the space to grieve, express their feelings and share their stories in a safe and confidential setting that is inclusive and non-judgemental. Exploring your loss as part of a group and sharing your experiences with others who are also grieving can help you find a way forward through your individual experience of bereavement.
Our weekly Bereavement Support Group meet weekly at:
Bescura Family Hub – Port Vale Football Club. Hamil Road, Burslem, ST6 1AW
DOVE BUDDIES SOCIAL GROUPS
We recognise that not everyone who experiences a bereavement or loss needs specialist counselling to feel like themselves again and because of that, we offer social groups across North Staffordshire and Cheshire. Dove Buddies is a place to meet other people in a similar position to yourself and to create friendships.
