Bereavement support is available to the family and friends of anyone cared for by St Wilfrid’s.
It is also available to any bereaved person living in our catchment area
When someone dies who is important to us, it can leave a space in our lives and it is natural to experience strong or mixed feelings.
Perhaps you feel sad they are no longer with you, bad that you could not do enough, guilt about your relief that they no longer have to suffer illness or frailty, anxious about how your life will be changed. There may also be practical problems for you and other people who share your loss, such as children or family members. You may wonder about how to find meaningful ways of remembering your loved one.
