Bereavement Support Group - You Are Not Alone
We all have times when it helps to be with people who actually know how we feel. Once a month on the first Thursday - a group of people get together for a cuppa, cake and a chat. Everyone who comes to the Bereavement Support Group knows the pain of loss.
We don't have a programme, we are not counsellors and we would not dream of believing that we can make the pain go away. What we can do is provide a safe space where bereaved folk can share their feelings and support and encourage each other.
When: First Thursday of the month, 2.30pm - 4.00pm

The Centre, Vicarage Rd, Ambleside LA22 9DH
