Grief Support Group

Leave a comment

Experiencing grief and loss whilst studying can be isolating. We are hosting a peer support group to help students navigate grief with others who understand what they are going through. This is a place to share stories of loved ones, learn new coping strategies, and hopefully lift some of the weight that grief can bring. This is a confidential group and no experience is too big or too small, everyone’s journey is different.

We look forward to seeing you there.
