  • How to talk to children about death when a parent has a terminal illness
    Dec 6 2019

    Jenni Thomas and Nick Heath introduce the series which is aimed at helping those who are grieving or anyone who is supporting someone who is bereaved.

    They are joined by former England cricket captain Andrew Strauss whose wife Ruth died after a diagnosis of lung cancer.

    In the year leading up to Ruth’s death, Jenni saw both her and Andrew to help them talk to their children at a very difficult time. Andrew talks about the support that Jenni provided and how the family managed Ruth’s funeral.

  • Children and grief
    Dec 6 2019

    In this episode, Jenni shares what she has learned from bereaved children when a mother or father, sister or brother, or another important person in their life has died.

    It was bereaved children’s questions that encouraged Jenni to co-write her book with Caroline Jay ‘What does dead mean?’, a resource which helps parents to explain death and dying. A link to buy the book is below.

    Jenni also asks Nick to share his experiences of grief following the death of his mother when he was 14.
