Bereavement Support

All families receiving support from Banksia have access to a 12 month Bereavement Program.

The Bereavement Program consists of one on one counselling and a variety of different Bereavement Groups for children and adults.  Banksia holds an Annual Memorial Service for carers and families, to attend in memory of Banksia's clients, for that year, and those previously.  

For any inquiries regarding bereavement related matters, please contact our Bereavement Coordinator, Margaret Haywood, on phone 03 94972100 or
