ELLIOTS FOOTPRINT

Everyone kept saying 'losing a child is the worst thing that can happen to a parent' ... so we, along with other professionals and friends were shocked at the lack of support that was available to help us navigate the processes and even begin to cope with the grief of our family. We also didn't feel the schools had the resources or training needed to properly support Emily and Oliver, instead they saw bereavement as a behavioural problem... We are working hard to take the loneliness and frustration out of the systems and processes that families face in the aftermath of losing a child... Elliot's Footprint is a charity that helps families through child bereavement. We offer help and guidance whilst campaigning and fundraising for improved bereavement services.
