When someone dies it can be one of the most difficult times in our lives…

Whether a death is expected, for example after a long illness, or sudden and unexpected, the grieving process is deeply personal and there are no rights and wrongs. The main thing is whether you feel you are managing ok or finding things a struggle, particularly as time goes on. If you think you do need more support this website can provide you with information and links to organisations and services for bereaved people (of all ages) in Derby city and Derbyshire.

‘The service provided me with the opportunity to grieve without feeling that I had to support anyone else or ‘put on a brave face’.'
