As part of our commitment to creating thriving communities of practice, we freely advertise training produced by our members. We may also offer our own training and events to members (see our 'Member events' page), the sector and the wider community.
Training courses and conferences are organised by our members across the country. These courses are aimed at school staff, health workers and many others who support bereaved children. At the moment, the majority of training is online.
Webinars
Jointly with the National Bereavement Alliance, the Childhood Bereavement Network are running monthly webinars for bereavement services managers and practitioners.
