How We Can Help
face to face support groups
MISS are currently running all of the support groups online through Zoom however when the covid restrictions allow, we will be returning to some of the face sessions as well as keeping with some online.
- Sessions are held on the second Thursday of each month from 7:15-9:30pm.
- We have a different speaker each month who delivers a 30 minute workshop with questions. They offer information, advice as well as tips on coping strategies after a loss. The evening finishes with open discussion and a poem/short story.
- Another group is held on the third Monday of each month, 10-11am. This is a cuppa and chat session!
We also offer 1:1 sessions with any new or existing members. Meeting at a quiet, relaxing and public space or on Zoom (with or without video) which is flexible for both the MISS volunteer and member to speak.
Sessions can vary for duration and how long is required by member, 20 minutes or 2 hours. This time can be used for you to share your experience, cry, ask questions or anything else.
