Bereavement Support Group Volunteer - Volunteer

Join to apply for the Bereavement Support Group Volunteer role at Holding On Letting Go.

Helping out at the Holding On Letting Go Parent/Carer Bereavement Support Groups which run over several weekends a year. You will assist our Parent/Carer Facilitator with group discussions and therapeutic work, co‑facilitating bereavement support workshops for parents and carers.

What difference will you make?

We are offering an opportunity to co‑facilitate bereavement support workshops for parents and carers. You will offer coping strategies to each parent/carer so that they can support themselves and their child/children with the bereavement. This will make a huge impact on the whole family and help prevent disruptions to a child’s development.

What are we looking for?

Ideally you have experience in bereavement work, adult counselling or adult therapy. Empathy and good listening skills are essential.

What will you be doing?

Run Parent/Carer Bereavement Support Groups while their children attend one of our bereavement support weekends. We provide free training, pay mileage, and provide food and refreshments. Groups are mainly held in Sittingbourne, with additional meetings in Sevenoaks and Broadstairs each year.
