Programme Resources · United Kingdom

Resources mapped to the eight domains of bereavement readiness.

A working directory for bereavement care in UK maternity and neonatal units. Every listing is placed in the domain where it does the most work, so a unit can move from a low domain score to organisations it can refer families to, train with, or learn from.

For UK units

The assessment and the NBCP

Know which domain to start with.

The self-assessment scores your unit across all eight domains and produces a Readiness Snapshot you can take to your trust or health board. Use it to decide which of these resources matter first.

Organisations listed are independent of Bereavement Ready and have not reviewed or endorsed this directory. This includes the National Bereavement Care Pathway, Sands, and the other charities named here. A listing is not a recommendation of any product or paid service, and Bereavement Ready receives nothing for any listing. Services, eligibility, and opening hours change often, and several differ between England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Check with each organisation before referring a family.
