Connect Group for Bereaved Grandparents

If you are a grandparent of a child who has died after a cancer diagnosis, Redkite is here to support you and your family for as long as you need us.

We understand that the death of a grandchild can be isolating, and is a challenging and unique experience. You’re likely experiencing worries for your child as they grieve, as well as experiencing your own grief. At times, it may feel as though people don’t understand what you’re going through, or how to best support you.

This online group is a safe space for bereaved grandparents to meet and talk to other grandparents in a similar situation, share their experiences, support each other and learn strategies that have been helpful. It will be facilitated by Redkite social workers, Dana and Katja. 

We welcome all grandparents (official and unofficial) and encourage new attendees to join. You’re welcome to share as much or as little as you like.
