Run & Walk for Bereaved to talk

The Bereavement Cafe CIC offers a safe space to anyone across Greater Manchester who needs a safe space to talk about their thoughts and feelings around Grief.

Our aims are to ensure that everyone can access Bereavement support, without hitting a 12month + wait list.

To educate people about Grief, loss and Bereavement to empower everyone to have those difficult conversations with family, friends, colleagues and help everyone understand that Grief lasts a lot longer than getting through the first 12 months!

To help local schools make sure they have the right Bereavement support and procedures in place to ensure children in their care gain the best support possible.

To continue expanding our service across Greater Manchester and beyond.

We have supported 100’s of people over the last 2 years, and receive excellent feedback from those who attend our sessions, many stating that they feel “lighter” for feeling heard and understanding that how they are feeling is normal and very natural.

The money raised from this fundraiser will go back into the communities to offer more Bereavement support via our Cage sessions & Supporting children with their grief.

We could not run these sessions without Funding, as a very small Community Interest Group, we are heavily reliant on fundraising.

This is the one support service that most people will need in their life. Sadly, Bereavement is everywhere, it affects every family, community and workplace, and without the right Bereavement support many people can struggle isolated and alone, so many further mental health issues can come from people not having somewhere to talk about their grief, such as anxiety, depression, self harm and at times, suicide.

Please help us, support those people directly in your community to get the best Support ❤️‍
