Our Helpline is always answered by a bereaved parent who is there to listen when you need someone to talk to. She/he can also put you in touch with your nearest Local and/or Group Contact in the United Kingdom, provide you with information about our services and supply leaflets, and sample newsletters. The Helpline also offers support and information to those supporting bereaved families. It is open every day of the year 10.00 - 16.00 and 19.00 - 22.00 (GMT).

The Helpline can also be reached by email: helpline@tcf.org.uk
However, a faster response will normally result from a telephone call.

The Compassionate Friends relies heavily on donations to cover the everyday running costs of the organisation in supporting bereaved parents and their families. Every gift towards this is greatly appreciated.

If you are liable for UK Income Tax, then if you would kindly complete a Gift Aid form,
any donation you make to TCF will be increased by almost one third.
