Young Person Peer-to-Peer Bereavement Mentoring project
Supported by Co-op Foundation

CYCA is pleased to be able to support young people that have been through a bereavement and need support.

The new Young Person Peer-to-Peer Bereavement Mentoring project is starting on 1^st March 2020 and we are looking for help in identifying young people who could benefit from the project.

We can support young people (aged between 13 to 20), living in Llanelli who have been bereaved, and are experiencing grief and loss. Our project aims to enable each young person to:

• Access a qualified Counsellor who will offer counselling support.
• Be assigned a Mentor.
• Join a peer-to-peer group to support one another.
• Undertake nationally recognised qualifications in Counselling and Listening skills and/or Resilience and Peer to Peer Mentoring.

The project will also work with some of these young people to become peer mentors, so that they can go on to help other bereaved young people.
We will support the peer mentors to establish a network and become Peer Ambassadors in school and college.

We can deliver this project remotely via online video platforms or in our new Centre of Excellence socially distanced (when regulations allow).
