Cruse - Bereavement Care (Headquarters)

Cruse Bereavement Care is the UK's largest and only national organisation that helps and supports anyone who has been bereaved by death. Since 1959 Cruse has been providing advice, support and information on practical matters for bereaved people entirely free of charge.

Cruse has learnt that it is time and talking that help soothe the immediate pain and sorrow. Time and talking are fundamental to all the services they offer to anyone bereaved.

Cruse's bereavement support is delivered through a network of 5,000 highly commited volunteers working in the community, in 150 branches across the UK.

Last year 177,000 sought their help and advice.

Cruse also offers training, support, information and publications to those working to care for bereaved people. Cruse aims to increase public awareness of the needs of bereaved people through education and information services.

As a National Charity Cruse depends upon the generosity of individuals to continue to work helping bereaved people.

Opening Hours: Monday to Friday - 9.30am to 5.00pm.
