National Grief week consists of a number of events and activities aimed at normalising the universal, yet often stigmatised, human experience of grieving, by creating conversation, increasing awareness and bringing hope.
The events aim to start conversations about a topic that is all too often ignored or sidestepped, while improving awareness about grief, offering advice on how to support ourselves or others in the community who are bereaved.
There will be a events and activities for people in our community who are grieving the loss of a loved one, those in the community who are supporting the bereaved; and the general community, who may have never experienced a significant bereavement, but who will at some point, lose a loved one or support someone.
National Grief Week events and activities are supported by City of Greater Geelong and Geelong Community Foundation.
