Special Event: Online session for bereaved families The empty chair at the table: Living with loss during the holidays(Presenter: Chris Hall AM, CEO of Grief Australia)

Many families feel the loss of a loved one more strongly during the holiday season. In this 60 minute online session, Chris will focus on how families can navigate their grief during the holidays. It is designed for family members and friends who are bereaved after caring for someone who died from an advanced disease or terminal illness. It offers guidance and support to help you navigate grief and find ways to care for yourself while honouring your loved one’s memory during the challenging holiday period. The empty chair at the table during the holiday period can bring up complicated emotions and challenge your previous traditions. This session will help you consider how to approach the holidays and consider new traditions to honour your loved and help you care for yourself during this time.
