When people don't know what to say- finding the right words in a heartbreaking situation

Listen on

Episode notes

This time Nik is joined by Zoë Williamson, the Bereavement Services Team Lead: Scotland for Child Bereavement UK. They discuss the heartbreaking, yet inspirational ITV documentary 'Jason & Clara: In Memory of Maudie' in which actor Jason Watkins and his wife Clara Francis tell the emotional story of their daughter Maudie, who died suddenly from sepsis aged just two and a half in the early hours of New Year’s Day 2011. Amongst other things, they discuss what support there is for parents and siblings who find themselves in this tragic situation. They also cover how we can talk to little ones about death, and how everyone has their own unique journey when it comes to grief .
There's also the usual look at the news headlines and what's on our radar at the moment.
