In the first days you only have to do a few things: register the death, arrange the funeral, and let people help.

Grief does not move in a straight line. It is normal to feel numb, angry, relieved, or to hear their voice in a crowded room. Tell your GP if you cannot sleep or eat after a few weeks.

Bereavement services below offer free talking support. Many churches also hold quiet services for anyone who has lost someone, whether or not they attend.
