Growing Through Grief ACW provides the Seasons for Growth® programme, which offers peer-support groups for children, young people and adults who are experiencing change, grief and loss in their lives. This may include the death of a loved one, parental separation or divorce, moving house or school, as well as many other life changes and losses.
Seasons for Growth® aims to strengthen the social and emotional wellbeing of children, young people, and adults who have experienced significant loss and change, and to support individuals to adapt to what they are experiencing.
The metaphor of the four seasons provides a framework within which participants can explore their experiences of grief with others, develop skills
