Create a workplace where grief is met with understanding, not silence.
Grief doesn’t stay at home, it comes to work with us. Whether it’s the death of a loved one, the loss of a pet, a relationship breakdown, or a major life change, grief affects focus, morale, communication, and wellbeing. Yet many employees suffer in silence, unsure how to ask for support, or how to give it.
At Griefline, we help workplaces respond with care and confidence. Because being grief-informed isn’t just thoughtful — it’s essential.

Leo Hede
Kids Helpline National Manager
Kids Helpline and Griefline have been partners in the support of grieving families and children for several years, and when our team were impacted by the sudden loss of a colleague we turned to Griefline and The Grief Informed Workplace webinar series to provide a timely and compassionate resource to support our team. The sessions provided practical strategies and a reassuring framework for understanding grief and supporting each other. The content was clear, thorough and well received by our team members. We have embedded the resource within our staff wellbeing toolkit.
