Specialist local services providing bereavement support

Up to 70% of schools have a bereaved pupil on their roll at any given time.

92% of young people will experience a significant bereavement before the age of 16.

We recognise it can be challenging to navigate the support that is available to help you support a child with bereavement. There are some excellent national charities that provide guidance, resources and training for teachers but we are also fortunate across Coventry and Warwickshire to have a number of charities who can provide more direct support if needed. 

Information on the local services and links to national organisations can be found on the Care And Support Towards Life’s End in Coventry and Warwickshire (CASTLE) website www.c-a-s-t-l-e.org.uk
