BARNSLEY CHILDREN, YOUNG PEOPLE AND FAMILIES BEREAVEMENT SERVICE

Barnsley CYPF bereavement service provides information, advice and counselling to:

• Children and young people who are bereaved
• Parents/carers who are bereaved by the loss of a child

How the service can help you

Our aim is to make sure everyone who needs it gets the right help (without needing to ask), in the right setting, by the right professional person.

We help by providing one-to-one support – just you and the counsellor or group.

We also provide group work support (including counselling) where people who have lost someone can talk about what they’re going through with peers.

We also raise awareness and understanding of bereavement and tackle why people don’t talk about bereavements.
