Mid and North East Essex Mind: Bereaved by Suicide

Losing someone to suicide can feel overwhelming. You might experience a range of emotions, from shock and sadness to anger, guilt, or confusion. However you’re feeling, you’re not alone; we’re here to support you. Our Bereaved by Suicide Support Service is here for anyone in North East Essex and Suffolk who has been affected by suicide. That includes family members, friends, colleagues, or anyone else impacted by the loss. We support both adults and young people. This service is free and confidential.

If you or someone you know needs support, please complete the form HERE. The form is at the end of the webpage and is open to both individuals and professionals seeking support following a bereavement by suicide.

We support both adults and young people. If a referral is made for a child or young person, we’ll carry out an assessment to make sure we can offer the right kind of support for their needs.
 
This service is free and confidential.
 
We’re here to help you in the aftermath of loss, offering one-to-one practical support.
The service we offer is:
  1. non-judgmental
  2. confidential
  3. built around your individual needs.
We run support groups where you can connect with others who have also been bereaved by suicide. We also have educational workshop groups to help people understand grief.

Our staff are trained to take the impact of trauma into account in how we support you. We will also signpost you to other services that may be of benefit, depending on your needs.

Is your life at risk? In an emergency, call 999 for an Ambulance, or call NHS 111 (Option 2).
