About this booklet
With a mixture of explanation, advice and interactive activity, many young people find these books really helpful.
These books are designed to be filled out slowly and are best to be completed alongside an adult.
If you’re a professional:
Many professionals find these booklets useful as an aid for further conversation. We recommend taking each topic at a time. Many of those who use these booklets find going through a topic every session is the best way. If you are not running sessions with the young person, please guide an adult to our website and encourage them to follow this advice. The books are totally free, but if you are using these books during a for profit service or represent a large charity we expect a small donation to help cover printing costs.
If you’re a parent or carer:
These booklets can really help with encouraging conversation about particular topics. Sometimes conversations may throw up questions you don’t know the answer to, it is always best to be really honest. Please email us on hello@siblingsupport.co.uk if you have any questions about this booklet and remember, there are helplines available if you need support or advice in supporting a bereaved sibling.
“My team and the siblings that have received the booklets so far have found them very useful. It has given parents and children guidance to work through together, in language that is clear and easy to understand.”
