Working in roles that involve supporting bereaved families and loved ones can be deeply rewarding—but it can also take an emotional toll. This practical and interactive workshop at 10.00–12.30 on Wednesday 14th January 2026 is recommended for anyone working in roles where they are consistently exposed to death including hospitals hospices, funeral homes, and care homes. It is suitable for frontline staff, their managers, and those supporting them.

Aims of the training 

• Understand what professional grief is and how it may impact an individual or workplace.
• Offer guidance for supporting your team and yourself.
• Highlight the support that is available. 

By the end of this workshop, you'll be able to: 

• Explain the difference between professional grief and other forms of grief.
• Explain and recognise the impact of professional grief on an employee and the workplace.
• Identify ways to support employees and teams who are exposed to frequent losses.
• Find and signpost further support.
