Crowdfunder supports families at Christmas

Christmas is such a special time of year; a time for sharing happy moments with family and friends, but families that have lost a loved one can find this a particularly lonely and isolating time.

Will you donate to help us provide care and support to families at this difficult and emotional time, helping them cope with their grief? Your donation could help children and families come to terms with losing a loved one and help them find joy again in this special time of year.

Please watch our Christmas Crowdfunding video and hear from family members who have been supported by our family support team and why we are raising funds to pay for our family support team to care for bereaved children and their families this Christmas.

St Richard’s family support team offers children and other family members the opportunity to express their feelings in a safe and comfortable environment and to talk about their memories of their loved one. We offer a range of support, including one-to-one and family counselling and groups where bereaved children and family members can talk to others in similar situations and work through their emotions with our specialist bereavement family support workers.

Your donation will help us give bereaved children and families the care and support they need to get through this most difficult time, safe in the knowledge that our family support team will be here for as long as they need them.

Please visit our Christmas Crowdfunding appeal to find out more.
