The motion
That the Parliament commends the work of Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland in providing vital services for grieving parents, families and children; acknowledges the importance of ongoing support to any bereaved persons and the adverse effects that such a loss may have on personal financial circumstances; congratulates Cruse on developing its training programme, which, in 2018-19, was delivered to staff in 59 schools; supports the continuation of beneficial events such as A Day to Remember, which brings together bereaved families to share their experiences; recognises the invaluable work of the 270 volunteers in providing such services, and believes that the continued provision of one-to-one counselling and listening sessions will positively contribute to improving the wellbeing of bereaved people in Scotland.
