‘Grief and Kids’ & ‘Suicide Grief’ workshops

Grief and kids: this workshop looks closely at the impact of grief across all ages from birth to teenagers and provides tangible suggestions on ways to support children and young people.

Suicide Grief: this workshop discusses the impact of suicide grief on individuals and provides tangible strategies to process and support others living with this significant reality.

Workshops Presenter Caroline Loo is the founder and director of the Loss and Grief centre Services for Southland. She established the service to support people experiencing loss and grief after her daughter died and she found it challenging to find support that understood the specific nature of significant grief.
