Helping Professionals to Support Bereaved People

AtaLoss is committed to helping professionals to support people who have been bereaved. Funeral directors, health care professionals and clergy repeatedly tell us they would like to know how to better support people when someone has died.

Our unique bereavement signposting website - this website, www.ataloss.org – aims to provide the full range of support services and information, to provide holistic support for wellbeing and add value to anyone’s work.  See our gold standard for signposting here.

You can direct to AtaLoss.org for free by using our logo.  Please describe us as 'AtaLoss.org, the signposting hub for finding UK wide bereavement support services, helplines and information.'

We also offer training for professionals in various forms, including for schools and youth groups in supporting young people with loss.  See our training here.

Below are useful articles and information to help you as you support bereaved people.
