Empathy

Empathy is an independent, Norwich based organisation that provides support, within Norfolk, specifically for people who have been bereaved through, or personally affected by, someone ending their own life.

Our desire and commitment to help others come with recognition of the sensitivity and non-judgemental approach that is needed in reaching out to others who are likely to be experiencing a mixture of intense emotions and may be feeling overwhelmed by many unanswered questions that burden them with uncertainty about what has happened and additional emotional pain.

We facilitate and lead support groups offering an informal, friendly and non-judgemental environment where people can feel emotionally protected and safe to openly share about their loss and find some relief in knowing that they are not alone in the grief they are experiencing.

We currently have the following meetings:

• Stalham: monthly drop-in, Thursday 10am-midday
• Norwich: fortnightly drop-in, Wednesday 10am-2pm
• Cromer: fortnightly drop-in, Wednesday 10am - midday
