Bereaved Families Support Group (BFSG)
Welcome to the Support group for bereaved families (BFSG) web page.
The Bereaved Families support group was set up by a group of bereaved families who had lost loved ones serving in the Armed Forces. We recognized that the death of a family member changes everything. We all cope with loss in our own way, but sometimes it helps to share your feelings with someone who has been through a similar experience.
The group is opened to families who have lost loved ones in Combat and non-combat situations. SSAFA-FH recognizes that it is the loss of a loved one that binds us together. The group is open to parents, partners, siblings, grandparents and anyone else who is considered part of the family unit and feels they will benefit.
You are very welcome to browse our case studies or join our web forum.
