'Little book of Loss' supports pupils

Jul 4 2008 by Our Correspondent, Perthshire Advertiser Friday

PRIMARY schools in Perth and Kinross have received a new resource to support children who experience loss and bereavement. The 'Little Book of Loss' was developed as part of the schools’ bereavement project, by peripatetic support teacher Ann Jones.

The leaflet offers advice to children at what can be a very difficult time. It received its launch at the bereavement charity CRUSE Bereavement Care's Grief in Young People conference, held recently in Perth.
