This session is available for everyone.
Grief is something we will all experience at some stage in our lives, and we never know when bereavement will strike. When it does, it can affect us all in very different, unexpected ways. Navigating it in our workplaces can be a real challenge for both managers and staff, which can lead to feelings of helplessness.
This is the first in a series of Grief Bitesizes which have been designed by expert Helen McMenamin, specifically for The West Yorkshire Primary Care Workforce & Training Hub. The series includes a delivery of an introductory session (2/12/25), then a specialist advice session for managers (24/3/26), and also one for employees (23/6/26).
Grief impacts every workplace, yet it is often misunderstood and overlooked. This introductory BITESIZE is designed to equip your practice/PCN with the essential understanding of grief and its effects on individuals and teams.
Session Includes:
- How grief can shape;
- Workplace behaviour
- Communication
- Wellbeing
- Why businesses that recognise and respond compassionately to grief foster more resilient, supportive cultures.
Session Facilitator: Helen McMenamin, Grief Expert, Thornfields
