Awareness Week
Grief support from The Charity for Civil Servants
With deaths from Covid exceeding 137,000 in the UK, the need for bereavement support has never been greater. 15% of all mental health problems come from unresolved grief which hugely impacts our physical health and the economy too.
The Charity for Civil Servants has been working with Grief Works to provide the Grief Works app. The app gives an introduction to all forms of grief, including anticipatory grief, and helps you to identify ways in which to manage your emotions.
There are 28 interactive 15-minute sessions to help work through your grief, a toolkit with over 30 tools for 24/7 access and an opportunity to keep a journal to help you deal with your emotions.
The app is currently available on Apple only. It will be available on Android early in 2022. Sign up for the app now on Apple, or to join the mailing list if you’re an Android user. You’ll be notified as soon as the app becomes available.
The Charity for Civil Servants supports all current, former and retired civil servants throughout their lives, listening without judgement and offering practical, financial and emotional support.
