What to do and how to behave after someone dies are circumstances we’re not usually involved with until the situation arrives, often unannounced.
The BBC publish an excellent booklet called ‘Losing Your Partner’
It takes you through:
• Initial shock
• Immediate practicalities
• The emotional aftermath
• Friends and family
• Widowed with young children
• As time passes
• Rebuilding your life
• Re-examine your life
• Helping someone who has been bereaved
• Useful contacts
Instead of reproducing it all here, type the following into your internet browser:

Then click on ‘download our booklet’
We thoroughly recommend this guide even if it’s not you that’s lost someone. The helpful guide takes you through how bereaved people are feeling and how it’s best to interact with them, at such a time.
