Parent Programme
Parents are encouraged to take part in the Parent programme which is designed for parents of those young people who are participating in the Seasons Programme.

Companion Training

Professional Development
Professional development is available for teachers in understanding change, loss and grief. Professional development is available for school management teams and Boards of Trustees in the hope that they will better understand the value of the programme and encourage the Seasons Programme in their school.

The Adult Programme is for those above 18 years and who are not at school. It is a programme for those wishing to increase their knowledge of their grief and focus on understanding and managing their particular losses.
