Finding new ways to talk
Essential resources for school and home
A toolkit to help children and young people talk openly about loss, legacy and remembrance.
Launching ahead of the inclusion of grief and loss in the National Curriculum, we have partnered with The Mulberry Bush – experts in supporting traumatised children since 1948 – to create essential learning packs with age-appropriate tools for the classroom. These free packs for Primary and Secondary schools include lesson plans, presentations and creative activities that build confidence to discuss grief with care.
We are also developing take-home guides with Hospice UK to help parents continue supportive conversations through clear language, shared reflection and meaningful at-home activities.

To support Celebration Day, we are providing free, age-appropriate resources designed to normalise conversations about loss, encourage celebrating lives and support emotional literacy in children and young people.
What’s included?
- School Resource: Developed with experts from The Mulberry Bush, including lesson plans, PowerPoint presentations, and creative activities for Lower Primary, Upper Primary, and Secondary students.
- Home Resource: Providing families and guardians with the tools and confidence to continue the conversation at home.
