Dying Matters Awareness Week
Here at Prints For Life our focus is helping children process the death of a loved one, and part of this is helping them create their own narrative around the death and why those decisions were made.

Creating memories of those we love comes in all shapes and forms.
Rubie was a dream to cast today, she was very chilled and relaxed throughout the whole process.

Making memories during palliative and end of life is so important!
When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure 💙 xx

Help children express their thoughts through pictures and art.
When a child has no vocabulary for how they feel they will generally feel some relief from play time.
Art is a wonderful way of allowing a child an outlet without them realising.

[Prints For Life @Printsforlife]

We provide a creative outlet to enable grieving children the chance to open up about what's going on for them and iron out any misconceptions.
The service will also produce a visual memory aid that will last a lifetime.

Helping a child process a difficult time can feel daunting to anyone, but it is crucial to revisit these times if they are impacting on a child moving forward.

When a loved one dies, children react differently to adults.
By encouraging your child to ask questions about death and loss and answering them honestly, will help in the healing process. If you don’t have the answers, be honest, explore what they understand and feel.

A therapeutic service that runs over several months encouraging your child to express their thoughts and feelings within their home. One mom said "The questions allowed us to talk and explore her thoughts and feelings, which has been a type of counseling for her" #printsforlife

Creativity is key!

Children may not have the words to describe the way they are feeling, so to draw whilst having open conversations can give them a healthy outlet.
