The aim of Bereavement Care is to improve our understanding of grief and bereavement and to enhance the quality of care and support provided to bereaved people in all parts of the world.
Bereavement Care was founded in 1982, and has grown to become a unique international journal that sets a high academic and scientific standard. Accessible and interdisciplinary, it reaches a range of relevant audiences including practitioners, volunteers and students, as well as academics, researchers and all those with an interest in the impact of death on people's lives.
