Offering heartfelt support to families grieving the loss of a young person, this Eastbourne-based charity provides comfort and support to families that can share their experiences either on a one-to-one basis or as part of a support group.

What began as a small, volunteer-led charity, You Raise Me Up, now offers one-to-one counselling and monthly support groups where families can share with other families, focusing on mental health and wellbeing.

Core services include:

  • Specialist bereavement counselling for individuals and families
  • Monthly support groups
  • Community advice and signposting for mental health
  • Signposting via our website to guidance on stress, depression and suicide prevention
  • A compassionate, non-judgemental approach grounded in lived experience

At the heart of YRMU’s mission is the ability to say “we understand” rather than “we can’t imagine.” Every service is designed to support grieving families in ways that feel personal, respectful and lasting. Whether you are just beginning to face a loss or struggling further down the road, YRMU is ready to walk alongside you.

This is not just about counselling. It is about holding space, sharing pain, and finding strength in community. If you or someone you love has experienced the death of a young person, You Raise Me Up is here for you.
