What we do

2wish was established in 2012 to support parents, siblings and other family members affected by the sudden and unexpected death of a child or young adult aged 25 and under.
When a family loses a child or young adult the effects are devastating for all who knew and loved them. It is essential that support is available when required. It is important families know that they are not alone and that the feelings they are experiencing are usually very normal. It is also crucial that there is communication between the family, hospital staff and members of the Police force so families understand what is going to happen in the days and weeks following their loss.

This service is for people of all ages.
