Every year in Scotland, thousands of children, young people, and adults face the overwhelming pain of losing someone they love. But did you know that one in five bereaved people need professional support to cope with their grief?

Could your staff throw an office fundraising activity in the office, like a bake sale, or could you make up a team to take part in a challenge event like a Kiltwalk or a marathon relay? You will have a dedicated fundraiser who can offer ideas, hints & tips, T-shirts, materials, and often free entry to some exciting races or challenges.
Thank you to wonderful colleagues at the Edinburgh base of BlackRock who supported Cruse Scotland across 2024. By painting our counselling rooms, hosting a charity ball, knitting colourful squares for use during children's bereavement support sessions, and lots, lots more, these inspiring people raised an incredible £70,000! Thanks so much to you all for giving your time, skills, energy and fundraising efforts to make a difference to those struggling with grief.
Colleagues from the Glasgow office put the fun in fundraising by organising a bake sale followed by a school sports day competition on Glasgow Green. Some team members went even further by taking part in the Kiltwalk, the Drop and even one ran a half marathon to make a difference to others struggling with grief.
Since opening this new, beautiful and welcoming crematorium just a few years ago, the team at Brewsterwells Crematorium near St Andrews got to fundraising and in 2025 split the total amongst seven local causes. We were delighted to be nominated to receive a very generous donation of £2,015 and look forward to working with the team and offering support in any way we can, in the years to come.
If people are unable to grieve for a colleague or loved one, it can lead to other problems. They can find it harder to concentrate and it can trigger physical and mental health issues.
We can provide training tailored to the needs of your business, whether to support bereaved members of your own staff or to help those who come into contact with bereaved people in the course of their work.
