We understand that grieving in these difficult times comes with additional challenges and stresses.

We know that if you are working within the NHS to support bereaved  families, that this will also be a very challenging time.

Sands is a safe space for you to grieve and to find support, whether you are a parent, sibling, grandparent, NHS professional or friend.

Our helpline is open from 10am to 3.30pm Monday to Friday and 6pm to 9pm Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

The telephone helpline is free to call from landlines and mobiles on 0808 164 3332.

The helpline team can also be contacted at helpline@sands.org.uk or you can send us a private message via the Sands Facebook page.
