bereavement support for young adult with LD

[sister1992]

I am looking for a support group for young adults who have experienced bereavement. We are based in the North Somerset and Bristol area - has anyone heard of anything?

Thanks

Hello,

It might be helpful to link in with your local Cruse team to see what they offer or if they know of anything, cruse.org.uk/get-help/local....

Hello

Some great replies here already. A few more ideas from me:

> I can see that you spotted another similar post here - healthunlocked.com/mencap/p... - hopefully some of the links on there are useful

> Have you see GriefChat? It is a chance to talk to a specially trained bereavement counsellor. It is free and you can get to from this Mencap webpage - mencap.org.uk/advice-and-su... -

There is also an Easy Read guide to using GriefChat.

> @lolo's suggestion of contacting Cruse is a great idea. There is a local service in Bristol. More information here - cruse.org.uk/get-help/local...

> There is also a bereavement support service in Somerset here - oursomerset.wordpress.com/2...

I couldn't see anything specifically for your adults, but Cruse should know more about what is available locally.

Best wishes

Sarah
