Bereaved by suicide? The Waves programme may be of interest.
Waves is an eight-week programme that aims to support adults aged 18 and older who have been bereaved by suicide. It is suitable for anyone who has been touched by the death – from close family to friends and colleagues.
Trained facilitators will be delivering this
Waves was developed by Skylight and Yellow Brick Road has trained facilitators who deliver the Waves programme.
The programme combines learning about suicide and bereavement, with group discussion and support. The group is facilitated by two trained facilitators over eight weeks and supports members to:
meet and share with others who are also experiencing the impact of suicide
explore aspects of their grief and reduce isolation and stigma associated with bereavement by suicide in a safe and supportive environment
get information and strategies about how to care for themselves and others (including children and young people), after a suicide
adjust to living with loss and moving forward.
