About Jeremiah’s Journey
Jeremiah’s Journey is a charity that offers support and information to children and their families that have experienced or are anticipating the death of someone special. We provide our service for children and their families living in Plymouth and the immediate surrounding area.
We see many families each year and always aim to support children through their grief in a way that is most appropriate to each individual family. Many of the children that we meet are facing the death of one of their parents. We also meet with children who have been bereaved of a sibling, grandparent or someone else who has been very special to them. We start out by meeting the family and hearing their story.
We then offer help through providing:
• Reassurance and guidance for parents / carers
• Tailored individual sessions for children and young people
• Sessions for the family to talk together
• Extra support for those parents/carers who need it
• An open group programme for children who have a parent with a terminal illness
• A short term therapeutic group programme for bereaved children and their parents / carers
• Follow up sessions
• Events and activities for our families
• Study days where we share skills and best practice with other professionals
Sadly our service is one that will always be needed. We need your support to make sure we can be there for every child and their family who needs us not just for now but for the future.
