A Child of Mine
A Child of Mine is a national resource centre to support anyone affected by the death of a child, with information, guidance and support from people who DO understand. We offer information on all aspects of losing a child, from the practicalities of what happens when your child dies to arranging a funeral, advice for siblings and how to survive as a couple during your grief.
A Child of Mine also includes a comprehensive list of support groups by region, together with all the major National Organisations across the country who give support and counselling after the death of a child.
Alder Centre
The Alder Centre provides services for anyone affected by the death of a child of any age (ranging from miscarriage to adult children) and for any reason, including stillbirth, termination, accidental, violent or suicidal death and death following acute or chronic illness. The Centre also offers training for Health Care Professionals.
The Alder Centre works in a way that is based on including all and recognising individual differences. Some people prefer the comfort and guidance of other bereaved parents and others that of qualified and trained professionals. The Centre provides both types of support.
The service works directly with bereaved parents and also extended family members and professionals who have been involved in the child's life.
(The Alder Centre Helpline established at the Alder Centre, Alder Hey Children's NHS Foundation Trust and the Child Death Helpline established at Great Ormond Street Hospital were brought together in the setting up of the national freephone Child Death Helpline and website - 0800 282 986.)
