Support Us

Cruse Scotland is the leading national charity for bereaved people in Scotland.  

One in five people need professional support in their grief journey. Without help, those bereaved people can suffer from loneliness or isolation, poor physical and mental health, and potentially a loss of income for those who feel unable to return to work.

As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to impact all of our lives, our services are needed more than ever before.

We rely on our volunteers and the generosity of the public and businesses to deliver the support that is so urgently needed.

Here is how you can help us to support the bereaved people of Scotland.

Donate

All of us will experience bereavement, many times over, in our lifetime. 1 in 5 will need additional, professional support to cope with loss.

Donate a one-off sum or set up a monthly direct debit here, to help us support over 15,000 bereaved people across Scotland every year.
