Clear and timely information sharing is essential in ensuring that individuals and families receive the support they need following a bereavement.
Our Information Sharing Pathway helps ensure that bereaved individuals and families receive timely, appropriate support. A range of letter templates is also available to help clergy, pastoral teams, and volunteers communicate with compassion, consistency, and care.
