New! Facilitated Grief Support Group starting mid-October

New! Facilitated Grief Support Group starting mid-October

We want to share with you a new option for support, for families who have experienced loss through H.I.E.

Our new facilitated grief support groups will start next month in October, offering a safe, supportive space for those facing grief challenges.

• The sessions will be on Zoom
• Groups will be kept small (maximum of 8 parents, all with H.I.E. experience) to allow enough time and space for everyone to be seen and heard.
• The sessions will run over the course of 8 weeks (90 minutes per week) and will consist of the same people. New people will not be able to join after week 2, to allow for the group to bond and gel.
• They will be facilitated by Santou, an Advanced Grief & Trauma Specialist. You can read more about Santou on her website: https://griefsupport.co/about

If you are interested in joining the group here are the next steps:

• Using the Doodle poll, let us know what day/time would be most suitable for the sessions; https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/dyMkVqRd
• Complete this short referral form so that we have your details and permission to share your contact information with Santou. (If you need any help completing the form, or would rather discuss, please let us know).
• Santou will then send a calendar link so you can book in a one-to-one private session via zoom with her.  This introductory call, to take place between 1^st October to 13^th October, is to understand where you are on your grief journey, talk through the benefits of group support and what you might gain from the experience, and allow the opportunity for you to ask any questions.

The one-to-one private session and the group sessions are all fully funded by Peeps, and everything you discuss with Santou and within the group will be treated confidentially and with utmost sensitivity.

If you feel you would benefit from some support but aren’t sure if a group setting is right for you, please get in touch and we’ll explore all options, including one-to-one support.

We hope you will feel encouraged to take up our latest offer to support you, with a no-obligation introductory call with Santou to discuss whether this group support is right for you.

Sending gentle wishes,

Sarah and all at Peeps
