Support for Bereaved Parents and Siblings in London
SLOW is here to support you and your family following the devastating loss of your child. We provide an informal, quiet space for you to meet with other bereaved parents and share your experiences.
At SLOW we know that your grief cannot be fixed, and we do not strive to ‘make things better’.
Instead we give you space and support, so that you may, in your own time, slowly rebuild your life.
In this way, we believe there is hope to be found in connecting with other bereaved parents, relief in sharing the pain of grief, and company in bearing the unbearable, alongside others who are living with the death of their child.
Whether it’s weeks, months or years since your child died you’ll be welcome here at SLOW. Find a support group near you.
