Puggles is our Sibling Support space which has had beautiful feedback from bereaved siblings in SA!
We gather for a couple of hours on a weekday once during each school holiday period for bereaved siblings to spend time with other families like theirs, an opportunity for them to feel the safe validation that this provides. 💜
After the little ones burn some energy we partake in an activity which will:
- Normalise using their siblings name
- Normalise having a conversation around a memory/emotion
- Helps them slow down and observe and explore a thought or feeling
- Create a visual and tactile sensory experience
The children will be guided in an age appropriate way, and in response to their individual needs and comfort. Plus some take-home resources.
Those who are trying to conceive or are pregnant after loss will also find this a really safe and supportive space to talk about their experiences, all community members are also warmly welcomed. We’re all bereaved here, this is a safe place for you always.
Email Bonnie for information about the next event date.
You are also welcome to follow our state Facebook Group for updates and info.
A gentle reminder: Our community events are not formal support groups, but rather a space for all to come together, no matter where you are on your journey. Whether you’re navigating childlessness, trying to conceive, currently pregnant, or simply seeking a space for all to come together, no matter where you are on your journey. We embrace the diversity of experiences and look forward to creating a warm, supportive space for all.
