BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT IN THE ARCHDIOCESE
The Family Life Commission has undertaken the support of those people who are bereaved within the Archdiocese.
Courses have been run in a variety of places to assist parishes to set up a support group. To date 12 courses have been completed with people from all over the Archdiocese participating. The work is now spreading throughout our parishes and it is our hope that as a result more help is given to people during this sad and often lonely time.
RAINBOWS is an organisation which helps children, young people and adults through the grieving process following any significant loss such as death, separation, divorce or other painful transition in their family.
RAINBOWS provides a safe setting in which the participants can talk through their feelings with those in a similar situation.
RAINBOWS operates in a site such as a school or parish. For information about how to set up a site, or to know which are the 22 sites which already exist in the archdiocese, please contact one of the following registered directors by e mailing

The following article appeared in “the Catholic People” in January, 2012.
Every Tuesday during the month of November 2011, 35 people from far and near in our archdiocese came together at the Cardiff University Chaplaincy to follow the twelfth course run by the Family Life Commission on “Befriending the Bereaved.” Each week a different aspect of this vital ministry was covered by a variety of people with expertise in all areas of bereavement support. Help was given to understand the needs of those who are bereaved through suicide, the loss a child and other scenarios that volunteers may come across in their work. Advice was given to them on setting up their own group within their Parish.
