Sometimes the most important thing a grieving child needs is someone who will simply listen.
For a child experiencing grief, the world can suddenly feel confusing, frightening, and incredibly lonely.
The loss of a parent, sibling, grandparent, or someone they love can affect every part of a young person’s life — emotionally, socially, and mentally - Yet many children struggle to talk about grief or find the support they need.
That’s why Sandy Bear exists.
Across Wales, Sandy Bear provides specialist bereavement support for children, young people, and families facing some of life’s most difficult moments. Through one-to-one support, safe spaces, wellbeing activities, family guidance, and compassionate care, Sandy Bear helps children feel heard, supported, and less alone.
This June, the Sandy Bear Big Bash brings the community together in support of this vital work - celebrating connection, compassion, and hope for local families.
But the need for support continues long after the event ends, so, today, we’re asking for your help.
Your donation could help provide:
- Specialist bereavement support for children and young people
