Child Bereavement UK helps families to rebuild their lives when a child grieves or when a child dies. We support children and young people (up to the age of 25) when someone important to them has died or is not expected to live, and parents and the wider family when a baby or child of any age dies or is dying.
We offer free, confidential bereavement support for individuals, couples, children, young people, and families, by telephone, video or instant messenger, wherever you live in the UK.
We also offer face-to-face support from a number of locations.
We also provide training to professionals in health and social care, education, the emergency services and the voluntary and corporate sectors, equipping them to provide the best possible care to bereaved families.

Action Medical Research for children is the leading UK-wide charity funding vital to research to help sick and disabled babies, children and young people.
We have been funding medical breakthroughs since we began over 60 years ago and have helped to beat polio in the UK, fight meningitis, prevent stillbirths and develop ultrasound scanning in pregnancy.
We fund a broad range of cutting-edge medical research most likely to deliver real benefit to babies, children and young people. We want to make a difference in premature birth, pregnancy complications and treating sick and vulnerable babies, as well as preventing infections and helping children affected by disabilities, disabling conditions and rare diseases.
