St Andrew’s - Your Church

Bereavement Support

What is Grief Like?

Grief is not an illness or madness. It’s normal not to feel normal.

It’s normal to feel:

Lonely
Tired
Furious at being left to do everything
Cut off
Angry
Sad
Forgetful
Isolated because no one talks to you, as they don’t know what to say

If this is you, come to the Bereavement Support Group, where you can enjoy talking and listening to others in a similar situation as yourself.

The monthly evening meeting is for people who have been bereaved at any time, to enable them to meet together in a friendly and confidential environment to allow the sharing of both practical matters as well as emotional feelings, and to both receive and give support to each other.

The meetings are held in St Andrew’s Church Hall, 7.30 p.m. till 9.30 p.m. on the second Tuesday in the month

Dates for April 2008 to July 2008

April 8^th, May 13^th, June 10^th, and July 8^th.
