Bereavement Services
Grief is a natural reaction to the loss of someone close. But it can be frightening, painful and isolating.
At Compton Hospice, we offer support and counselling to relatives after the death of a loved one, and the opportunity to talk to someone who understands.
We can offer individual sessions at our Cedars site or in your own home, and group support at The Lodge. Even if you haven’t contacted us for a period of time, we can still offer support in times of need.
“Having used the service for both myself and my daughter, I think it was a vital part of our grieving process, helping us both to deal with matters more easily and quickly."
Our specialist families bereavement counsellor also works with children of all ages on a one-to-one basis or with other family members. Children often experience grief very differently to adults and need extra help expressing, and coming to terms with, their emotions after losing 
someone close to them.
Who we can help
If your loved one had any connection with Compton Hospice, or any other Macmillan nurse service, you can contact us for support.
