Anam Cara is a national voluntary organisation set up by bereaved parents in 2008 after the death of their children.  Our aim is to provide the relevant services, support and understanding to families who have expereinced the death of a son or daughter

For each of us the death of our child has been a different experience.  For some it was expected.  For others it was sudden, through illness or accident.  It may have been a cot death or a still birth, suicide or substance abuse.  It may have been recent or decades ago, our may have been young or old.

What connects us all is the devastating sense of loss we experience.

Within each other we have found a level of support and understanding that others could not offer.

All Anam Cara Services are offered without charge to our parents.
