Child Death Helpline

The death of a child is unimaginable unless it’s something you’ve been through yourself. That’s why our helpline is operated by a dedicated team of volunteers who are all bereaved parents. If you’re a parent who has lost a child of any age, under any circumstances, and however recently or long ago, we’re here to help. We can also offer support to grandparents, siblings and the extended family, as well as professionals who have been impacted by the death of a child.
