The aim of the Wave After Wave Bereavement workshop is to ensure that all staff, peer supporters, and volunteers coming into contact with people bereaved by suicide have an understanding of the complex nature and impact of a suicide bereavement and are able to provide a compassionate and sympathetic response whilst also being aware of the impact of their work on their own wellbeing.

Learning outcomes

  • The grieving process and impact of suicide bereavement
  • Providing a compassionate response to suicide bereavement
