When someone close to you dies from cancer, FORCE can offer you:
For those who have an existing relationship with FORCE during the time of illness, we also offer a limited number of one-to-one sessions to help you manage your grief and understand some of the reasons why you may be feeling the way you are.
To find out more you can contact our counselling and support team on 01392 406168 or 01392 406169 or email help@forcecancercharity.co.uk
Grief can be very painful and may give rise to feelings and thoughts that you don’t expect. You may find information in the FORCE bereavement support leaflet helpful.
The impact and progress of each person’s grief is unique. Download a copy of our Understanding and Managing Grief booklet for a more comprehensive insights and advice on the way forward.
FORCE has produced series of films to help you deal with grief and bereavement. Our Oncology Support Specialist Gerry Gillespie offers insight into what happens when we lose someone we love.
We have put together information about support elsewhere in the community and other organisations and websites that people have found helpful when managing their grief.
