| Popis: | Many people experience acute isolation, lack of support and social stigma following a drug or alcohol related bereavement. This article highlights trends within drug and alcohol-related bereavement and the common themes which surface when someone dies in this way. It goes on to explore the work of the BEAD – bereaved through drugs and alcohol project between Cruse Bereavement Care and Adfam in supporting this overlooked and under-supported group of bereaved people. It gives a particular emphasis on how BEAD’s team of dedicated, trained, peer support volunteers – all themselves bereaved through alcohol and drugs – are playing a significant role. |
