Support For You

Every journey through grief is deeply personal. Whether your loss was recent or many years ago, we are here for you.

We offer support in several ways:

Call, Text or Send an Email

Telephone Support Calls can be arranged, by sending a text or WhatsApp message to 07464 508 994 or by emailing support@achingarms.co.uk.

Grief may feel lonely, but you don't have to carry it on your own. Our experienced and compassionate team are here to offer understanding and support when you need it. 

Please note:

• This is not an emergency service, if you need to speak to someone urgently please contact one of these organisations:
• Phone Samaritians on 116 123 or alternatively Text 'Shout' to 85258. 

Support Meetings for Mums

Our online monthly support meetings for bereaved mums provides a safe space to share your experiences and connect with others who have experienced baby loss. 

Many parents find comfort in connecting with people who understand the lasting impact of loss and the challenges that can come with grief.

The meetings are held online, on the first Tuesday of each month (unless otherwise specified). To find out more or join the group, please email support@achingarms.co.uk.

The group is led by Erica Stewart, a qualified and experienced bereavement group facilitator, who creates a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone is treated with kindness, respect and understanding.

Our Dad's Support Lead, Tom Donaldson, offers 1 to 1 support and also Monthly Online Group Support for Dads.
