The Invisible String
Phil is from our Child Bereavement Service and today she is reading a contemporary classic for all ages – ‘The Invisible String’ by Patricia Karst.
With Father’s Day approaching on Sunday, this book ‘The Invisible String’ may help ease and comfort readers with issues of separation, anxiety, loneliness and loss, reminding us that we are always connected to loved ones.
We have an advice line for any adult concerned about a child or young person (4-18 years) who has been bereaved, to discuss ways of supporting them during their grieving.
The advice line number is 07867372711 and is open Monday, Tuesday and Friday 10-1pm.
