Supporting young hearts
Losing a loved one at a young age is incredibly difficult and at Edward’s Trust we are here to support you through this tough time. We offer a caring and safe space where you can express your feelings, find comfort and start to heal. Our services are tailored specifically for young people so you get the support you need in a way that suits you.
We understand how overwhelming grief can be. Our team is dedicated to listening and providing support in a way that makes you feel safe and understood. You don’t have to face this alone – we’re here to help you every step of the way.
Our services include individual counselling, wellbeing (16+) and youth support groups. Counselling sessions offer a confidential space to talk about your feelings with a compassionate and experienced counsellor, while our support groups connect you with others who have similar experiences, fostering a sense of community and shared understanding.
All our services are free, and together with your counsellor, we will determine the most appropriate support for you. Counselling sessions are arranged based on individual needs, and support groups are offered when the time is right. If you are looking for support, our team is here to help. Contact us via phone or email to learn more and take the first step in your journey.
Parents supporting grieving young people
Supporting a grieving young person while navigating your own grief can feel overwhelming. At Edward’s Trust, we provide support for bereaved parents and carers of children or young people who are currently accessing our services and who also need space to process their own grief.
We understand that when you have the opportunity to explore your own emotions, it can help you find the emotional capacity to support your child. Our therapists work closely with our children’s team, ensuring a compassionate and holistic approach that acknowledges the unique challenges faced across generations.
