How to help someone who has been bereaved - you CAN make a difference

If There's Anything I Can Do Just a reminder of our book, If There's Anything I Can Do. An immensely practical ebook for the friends and families of the bereaved, it shows you exactly how to help without getting in the way.

It is awful when someone you love goes through the unbearable pain of bereavement. You feel distraught and completely unable to help. You can't take away the grief, but there are many things you can do to make everyday life more bearable. And no-one knows better what those things might be than people who have been bereaved themselves.

This guide explains how it feels, and also passes on the advice of many other people who have been bereaved. These people know exactly what helped them most (and what was well-meant but not helpful) at the time, and in the months, weeks and years afterwards.

This ebook is full of little ways - and big ways - you can help someone you care about cope that little bit better. Click here to read more about If There's Anything I Can Do...
