"I have found depths within myself and others that were unexpected, but very helpful."

"I was very frightened to start the course in fear of 'opening up' a can of worms!  I eventually joined in week 2 and thankfully haven't looked back.  The Bereavement Journey has been of such great value to me.  I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to participate in this."

"A fascinating but challenging course which had a great mixture of listening to a video and then chatting with a very interesting group.  I learned a lot."

"I came to the course hoping to prepare possibly for the future.  Very quietly that became very much a back seat.  As I have discovered and I have re-calibrated my whole life and all that it has entailed.  That recalibration has taken most of my reflective time."

"It's good to talk... It has been very helpful to chat with others and to be open."

"I've found it very helpful sharing my experiences in a kind, caring and empathetic environment.  Thank you."

"A perfect time to reflect in a supportive atmosphere."

"Really helpful in many ways."

"Really helpful to view things in a different point."

"I attended the first session of the Bereavement Journey almost by accident.  By its end I realised that the course would be an incredibly hard but unmissable opportunity to deal with latent grief, and I forced myself to return for the other sessions.  I am so glad I did as it gently brought me face to face not only with unresolved issues surrounding bereavement, but with deeper-seated personal issues that I have been able to confront and start dealing with in the months following.  I am so thankful for this course."
