Sandy Bear Children's Bereavement Charity
About the CPD course
This training will explore ways that Children & Young People (CYP) grieve. We will look at how grief can appear and explore factors that might affect the way that CYP manage their grief and its impact. We help you support vulnerable CYP with transferable skills to use within your own practice. This training is crucial for individuals working in settings; such as education; healthcare; social work where they may encounter CYP who are bereaved or facing a bereavement.
We equip participants with a comprehensive understanding of bereavement; enhance their communication and support skills in addressing the needs of grieving CYP.
Sandy Bear provides bereavement support to children, young people and families across Wales who have, or are facing a bereavement. Using 1:1 and peer support groups we help create positive memories. Our work sees numerous positive outcomes for those we support.
Our training gives you the tools to know how to support a young person who has, or is facing bereavement, tackles common fears about what to say or do, and gives learners confidence in knowing that saying something is better than saying nothing at all, and reinforcing our tagline 'Helping children and young people to smile through the tears’.
