You will need to have a level of personal awareness and emotional maturity suitable to the demands of bereavement counselling skills training.

The course is aimed at applicants who are willing to become voluntary bereavement counsellors with BBS.  Applications are also welcome from anyone who would find bereavement counselling skills useful in their work place or in another voluntary organisation.  Places on the course are limited and priority will be given to those applicants who want to work for BBS following the course.
