Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide (SoBS)

Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide (SoBS) exists to support adults impacted by suicide loss. Founded by people who have experienced this unique and devastating bereavement themselves, SoBS offers a safe, understanding space to find comfort, connection, and hope.

Every year, thousands of people turn to SoBS for peer-led support through local, in-person and virtual support groups, specialist groups, and a national support line. Our volunteers, all of whom have been personally impacted by suicide, bring lived experience and empathy to every conversation; offering reassurance that healing is possible and that no one has to face this alone.

SoBS recognises that suicide bereavement can bring intense feelings of guilt, anger, and isolation. We provide understanding, not judgement; hope, not platitudes. By connecting with others who truly “get it,” people find strength, meaning, and the courage to rebuild their lives.

With your help, SoBS can continue to reach people in need of our experience and expertise, ensuring that support, compassion, and community are available to anyone who needs it, whenever they need it.
