Rather than bore you with details of the time I’ve spent on my bike recently (I’ve not done anything as exciting as the 100km) I thought it would be good to highlight Care for the Family‘s Bereaved Parent Support – one of the two charities that I’m supporting by riding 550km across India later this year.
Losing a child, whether stillborn, as an adult or somewhere in between, is a heartbreaking ordeal. One that I know nothing about. However Care for the Family’s BPS team have all experienced this tragedy and they help other grieving parents find hope, healing, peace and a way forward for their lives.
There are a number of ways BPS helps grieving parents:
- Helpful and practical articles about living without a son or daughter.
- Telephone befriending by someone who’s walking a similar path.
- Bereaved parent support days.
- Bereaved parent support weekends away.
- Resources aimed at helping people help bereaved parents

Don’t forget, you can make your donation securely at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/CandyG and if you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to gift aid it too.
Blessings,
