Supporting mental health during bereavement – Dr Alex visits Jigsaw4u

Losing a loved one as a child can often feel like being catapulted into adulthood, with new responsibilities, complex emotions and the risk of serious mental health issues.

That’s why children’s bereavement projects like Jigsaw4u are so critical, with BBC Children in Need funded practitioners helping children and young people to process their grief and emotions. Dr Alex went to visit Jigsaw4u to find out first-hand how your donations help to fund this vital work.
