Our Bereavement service offers group support and in some cases, individual counseling to bereaved parents. Bereaved parent and siblings groups are held regularly during the year. Groups for parents are available face-to-face or via telephone and email.

A bereavement support newsletter published twice a year is also available for parents and carers. For more information about counseling and/or support groups please call our Bereavement Co-ordinator on 9845 0000 and page 7013.
