What it does

This service provides specialist counselling for children (aged 4 to 18) and families in Manchester, Salford and Stockport, who feel they need some extra support because a child has a life-limiting condition or at any time after a child has died from such an illness. Depending on their age, interests and level of understanding they use resources such as play, art, and soft toys to develop a relationship and aid communication. The meetings with workers take place where the youngster chooses, usually at home or school, and contact will usually be either weekly or fortnightly.
