Every situation is different and our reactions are unique to us – we all need different types of support. Below are a range of organisations that you may find helpful – please be aware that policies will differ from one organisation to another.
We Mind & Kelly Matters – Support after Suicide offers an extensive range of support from telephone, virtual online support and face to face.
Kelly's Heroes offer a parent's only support group in Wellingborough on the 3rd Monday of every month from 7:00pm until 9:00pm. This support group is for any parent that has lost a child or stepchild to suicide.
We know that suicide affects everyone in the family and community, regardless of their age and we all need the right support. If you are under 18, there are some excellent organisations who you can talk to and seek support from.
We are sorry but you cannot use our services if you are under 18, even if you are accompanied by someone older, as we do not have the appropriate qualifications or insurance. We strongly encourage you to get in touch with one of the organisations below. If you are an adult caring for a young adult or child who has been bereaved by suicide, take a look at supporting children and young adults for more information.
Those of us who have experienced this terrible tragedy truly understand. None of us need to suffer alone. Together we help each other.
We help individuals support each other, at the time of their loss and in the months and years that follow. We aim to provide safe, confidential environments where people can share their experiences and feelings, giving and gaining support from each other.
Our supportline is run by trained volunteers personally impacted by suicide. While we’re not a counselling service and can’t provide support for wider mental health or social care needs, we’re here to listen and support your grief journey. Due to demand, call duration is limited for support at scale.
Our online community forum offers peer-to-peer support to those bereaved by suicide. Please click the image above to complete an application form to gain access to our forum. Forum applications will be approved within a couple of days. You must be over the age of 18 to access our forum.
