Penhaligon's Friends

Penhaligon’s Friends is a Cornish charity supporting bereaved children, young people, parents, and carers throughout the county. We offer children and young people the chance to meet others and share their experiences, as well as practical resources to help them cope with their grief.

Ways we support:

  • Telephone information and advice
  • Resources
  • Home Visits
  • Family Visits
  • Memory Days
  • Teens Support Groups
  • Family Support Groups
  • Individual Face to Face Support ( 1-1 sessions)
  • School Support
  • Training for childcare professionals / those interested in helping bereaved children

We can provide support whether the person died very recently or a long time ago, and our services are provided at no cost to families in support of children and young people aged 0-18 who live in Cornwall.
