Change, Loss and Bereavement in Highland is made up of a collective of professionals from a variety of agencies who strive for better outcomes for children and young people who have experienced change and loss.
The aim of this website is to provide advice, guidance and links to useful materials, resources and other agencies who can support in times of change.
“The majority of children do not require specialist intervention and the indiscriminate use of bereavement services can be unhelpful. Children are more likely to seek support from family and friends and communication and support both within families and from the wider community have been found to play an important role in children’s coping.”
