Just ‘B’ is here to offer personalised, responsive emotional wellbeing and bereavement support to children, young people and adults. We serve the communities of the Harrogate District, Hambleton, and Richmondshire.
Just ‘B’ offers services to children, young people and adults across North Yorkshire, as well as specialist support regionally and nationally.
Services include:
Bereavement is a normal and natural response to death and most people who experience it come through safely with the help of family and friends. But for some, who experience more complicated grief, they may need professional support. Bottled up, these emotions can have damaging psychological, emotional and physical consequences for individuals, their families and society as a whole.
As well as 1-1 emotional wellbeing and bereavement support, we offer information and advice for professionals. Our bereavement support service is suitable for people experiencing any type of bereavement, including suicide, road traffic accident or terminal illness.
Just ‘B’ offers an immediate response to support school communities and families following the sudden death of a teacher or student.
We also work with primary and secondary schools across the district, offering specialist emotional wellbeing support to students as part of a bespoke package.
Community support line to help people manage their anxiety and emotional wellbeing.
