General Comments
Courses in Bereavement Counselling are best not undertaken by people who have experienced the death of someone close to them in the previous twelve months. The courses are skills focused and do not provide therapy.

All courses are from 9.30am to 4.30pm. It is important that participants attend all sessions so that group dynamics are not disrupted by absences.

Light lunch, morning and afternoon tea provided. Special diets not catered for.
