From the Publisher Annie Broadbent is a trained clinical volunteer at St Christophers Hospice. She also helps to run a support group with the hospice that offers a space for members of the public, staff and patients to talk about death and dying. She has started training as a volunteer for The Candle Project - a child bereavement service run by the hospice, and is also starting her second year of training as a psychotherapist at the Psychosynthesis and Education Trust. In her spare time she writes a blog (www.anniebroadbent.com) about coping with grief and her experiences at the hospice. She also writes a monthly blog for Psychologies magazine on the taboos surrounding death and grief. From the Back Cover Talking about death and grief has become something of a modern taboo. Most of us would rather avoid the subject altogether because it makes us feel anxious and awkward. When Annie Broadbents mum died, one of the hardest parts of her experience was seeing her friends and extended family paralysed by their fear of saying or doing the wrong thing. Grief is an unavoidable part of life and we will all be called upon at some point to help a friend or loved one cope with the death of someone they love. We Need to Talk About Grief will help you do that. Frustrated and saddened by her own experience, Annie decided to share her story and the stories of others she has met, in order to shed light on the emotions felt by the bereaved and how best to support someone grieving for a loved one. The contributors differ in age, gender and background but all have experienced immediate loss, whether a child, parent, sibling, partner or close friend. Combined with expert advice from key charities, We Need to Talk About Grief will help you navigate the common pitfalls, such as choosing appropriate words of comfort, making practical gestures of help, how to react to crying, when to offer a hug and how often to stay in touch. This moving and enlightening collection of voices from the shores of grief is an invaluable guide that will help anyone wanting to comfort a grieving loved one. Annie offers a compassionate and caring approach to supporting someone through grief, developed through her own experience and the use of expert advice ... this book will be a helpful tool for everyone Shelley Gilbert, CEO of Grief Encounter About the Author: Annie Broadbent is a psychosynthesis counsellor and works in private practice in central London.She is also founder and director of workplace wellbeing company Retune, which offers customised wellbeing away days for business.Before writing her first book, We Need to Talk About Grief (now Speaking of Death), she trained as a clinical volunteer at St. Christophers hospice and supported child bereavement events run by The Candle Project.
