A relaxed, family-friendly event bringing together bereaved children and the adults who support them, giving families the opportunity to discover the services and support available to them.While adults can speak to local charities and support organisations, children can enjoy a morning of fun activities and exciting experiences in a safe, welcoming environment.
Families can drop in and leave at any time between 10am and 1pm.
🚒 What will be happening?
For the children:
• 🚒 Exploring the fire engines and using fire service equipment, with activities provided by Humberside Fire and Rescue Service.
• 🚜 A visiting digger for children to see and enjoy.
• 🎨 Arts and crafts activities.
• 🦎 Special animal visitors, including reptiles, providing a unique hands-on experience.
• 🎅 A special visit from Santa, with the hope of providing children with donated selection boxes.
For parents, carers and guardians:
A number of local charities and support services will be available to offer advice, information and guidance, including:
• Dove House Hospice
• Together in Grief Forest School
• Young Carers services
• Other local charities and organisations supporting bereaved children and their families.
Families will have the opportunity to speak directly with these organisations, find out what help is available and learn how to access support when they need it.
When a family experiences bereavement, knowing where to turn for support can be difficult. Services are available, but families don't always know they exist, and organisations don't always know about one another.
This event aims to bring those services together in one place, helping families find the support they need while giving children the chance to have fun, make memories and simply enjoy being children.
Our aim is simple, let the children have fun while the adults discover the support available to help their families navigate grief.
Because no family should have to face bereavement alone.
