Support for Bereaved Parents and Siblings
We are here to support you following the devastating loss of your child or sibling. We provide an informal, quiet space for you to meet with other bereaved parents and siblings 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 and siblings, relief in sharing the pain of grief, and company in bearing the unbearable, alongside others who are living with loss.
September 2021 Update
We are running face to face groups in London as well as regular Zoom meetings this month, see below for dates of our next September groups or check out the SLOW calendar.
You can also connect with other bereaved families via our Facebook page.
Being listened to and understood is for bereaved parents a ray of hope amidst a world that has fallen apart.
Whether it’s weeks, months or years since your child or sibling died you’ll be welcome here at SLOW.

Thank you to our amazing volunteers
It’s volunteer week and we’d like to thank our many, many special volunteers who help SLOW run in so many valuable ways.
Face-to-face support meetings are (slowly) returning!
After a year of Zoom meetings some of our groups are returning to face to face. We’ll continue with Zoom meetings for those unable or apprehensive to return in person.
Your views matter! Please join our focus groups
SLOW wants to hear from our members about their experiences of coming to our bereaved parent support groups and we are looking for volunteers for our focus groups, to be held in May and June 2021.
