The Compassionate Friends ACT & Queanbeyan
The Compassionate Friends is a mutual self-help support group; people coming together who have had a lived experience and so are able to bring a special depth of understanding to each other.
It is a worldwide group and there are branches in all Australian states. We are all bereaved parents, siblings or grandparents.
Although there can be deep sharing amongst us – almost as though we have each touched the same place – we each of us have our own story, our own ways of grieving, our own philosophies of life.
