Bereavement Support for Adults
|
WAY is a UK charity that offers a peer-to-peer support network for anyone who's lost a partner before their 51st birthday – married or not, with or without children, inclusive of sexual orientation, gender, race and religion. To access their services you need to sign up to become a member using the link below.
Members of WAY have access to help and support from other young widowed people 24/7 through a secure, members’ only website and via private Facebook Groups.
WAY has members across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and there are lots of local activities and events that members can get involved with, if they want to. Some areas are more active than others but all members are given contact details for other people who live near them, so they can always find someone to talk to or meet up with for a coffee or a drink.
