Cruse was first established in Northern Ireland in 1984. Currently there are seven areas located throughout Northern Ireland in addition to a Charity Shop in Newtownards. There are over 400 volunteers and each year they conduct over 8,000 support sessions in Northern Ireland alone.
Cruse Bereavement Care exists to enable anyone bereaved by death to understand their grief, cope with their loss and to promote their well-being. Our Support Volunteers are trained to help you work through your feelings in a professional, safe and supportive environment.

Cruse services are provided free of charge and are dependent on the generosity of the local community and statutory support to deliver the service. Cruse services are based on volunteers in local communities supporting bereaved individuals in their communities.
