Nelson‘s Journey supports children and young people in Norfolk who’ve experienced the death of a significant person. Since 1997, Nelson’s Journey has helped thousands of bereaved children and young people in the county.
It is thanks to the tremendous support of our local community that our work is possible. We provide a range of resources and services, and accept referrals from families and professionals for those who may need our support.
Schools: Become a School Friend of Nelson’s Journey!
Nelson’s Journey is raising awareness of childhood bereavement in local classrooms and highlighting the bereavement support in Norfolk schools through a new ‘School Friend of Nelson’s Journey’ scheme.
To become a School Friend of Nelson’s Journey, schools need to meet identified criteria, such as providing a safe space for children, attend bereavement awareness training, and deliver a bereavement activity.
