The Festival Charity
The Festival charity for 2009 is Seesaw, which is a registered charity dedicated to providing grief and bereavement support for children, in cases where a parent or sibling has died or is dying.
Their name reflects just what their work with children is about. Grief is full of ups and downs and the difficulty is finding the balance.
Through practical support and understanding, SeeSaw strives to reduce the distress of grieving children and enable families to work together through the difficult times before and after the death of a loved one.
Their support is child focused, flexible and built around the needs of the family and young person concerned.
For more information about Seesaw please visit http://www.seesaw.org.uk/, or phone 01865 744768.
