Cruse Bereavement Support

If someone you love has died, you can talk to a trained volunteer who can help you make sense of how you are feeling. It does not matter how long ago the death was.

Good to know

The call is free. Volunteers are non-judgemental and will not share what you tell them unless you are in danger. You can also contact them through a webform at any time. Cruse has local branches in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Hours
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 9.30am to 5pm. Tuesday 1pm to 8pm. Closed Saturday and Sunday.

We list this organization because it is a national service for the need on this page. We’re not affiliated with it, and we don’t speak for it. Last checked October 3, 2026: we opened its own site and confirmed this link and number. We don’t call the lines, and hours can change — their site has the latest.

Heavy moment? Call Samaritans on 116 123 — or we’re here.
