New Directory of Bereavement services in UK
National hospice charity Help the Hospices and Cruse Bereavement Care have joined forces to produce an important new resource - The Directory of Bereavement Services in the UK 2007. Available from April 2007, the Directory will be the most comprehensive resource available on bereavement services and a practical source of information aimed at both professionals working with bereaved people and the general public.
The Directory covers the whole of the UK – as Stewart Wilson, Director of Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland points out, “So many bereavements involve families with members in the different nations of the UK – Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland thinks it is particularly important that the Directory will enable professionals and bereaved people to locate suitable local and national services.”
Copies will be available for £25 each including postage and packing . Anyone interested in ordering a copy should contact publishers at the Resource Information Service sales line 020 7939 0641 or email saleswris.org.uk
