The Good Grief Trust exists to help all those affected by grief in the UK. Our vision is to find the bereaved, acknowledge their grief and provide reassurance, a virtual hand of friendship and ongoing support.

Our central national database brings all UK bereavement services together around the country, to ensure that everyone receives a choice of tailored support from day one.

With over 600,000 deaths in the UK every year, at some time in our lives ALL of us will be affected by grief and none of us know how we will react to the death of someone close until it happens.

  • We are a solely voluntary charity, run by the bereaved, for the bereaved.
  • We aim to offer a fresh insight into the way grief is recognised.
  • We aim to encourage talking about grief in a more honest, straightforward way,
  • We aim to help to offer inspiration and hope to the bereaved to enable them to move forward with their lives.
  • Our website lists a growing database of over 800 bereavement support organisations under one umbrella. www.thegoodgrieftrust.org
  • Our Good Grief card works alongside the website, to signpost both the bereaved and those working with them. directly to a choice of support, for any bereavement, anywhere in the country.
  • Our vision is that the cards are given to every bereaved person in the UK to as soon as possible after the death
  • This one central signposting resource is distributed via hospitals, hospices, GPs, police, healthcare professionals, coroners, universities, schools, crematoria and so on.
  • Our Good Grief Pop Up Cafes bring communities together to share their grief and find new local friendships.
