Help us be there for the ones growing up grieving by supporting our Radio 4 Appeal!
We are just £3,000 shy of our £20,000 target! Donate today and help us be there for those growing up grieving. You can also listen to our Bereavement Support Volunteer, Dominic, on BBC Radio 4 as he shares the story of 13-year-old Oliver.
Winston’s Wish is a charity that helps children, teenagers and young adults (up to the age of 25) find their feet when their worlds are turned upside down by grief.
We provide digital bereavement information, advice and support for young people across the UK who are grieving the death of someone important to them. We also help advise the adults who are caring for young grieving people including parents, school staff and healthcare professionals.
No child should have to face grief alone. Help us be there for them.
