Anam Cara is an organisation that supports bereaved parents, Anam Cara support groups are situated throughout Ireland and provide parents a safe, comfortable environment where they have the opportunity to connect with other bereaved parents. Anam Cara is an inclusive organisation where parents do not identify themselves by their children’s age, how they died, or if their death was recent or many years ago. What Anam Cara provides is a safe place for bereaved parents to connect with others who understand the intensity of the grief and loss. Although Anam Cara does not offer counselling, each group has a lending library and information on the other services available to parents and families in the local community. Anam Cara Mayo are facilitating a Special Remembrance Evening on Wednesday 1st June at the Circle of Life Park, Salthill, Galway from 19:00-20:30. This event is open to all family members. This event will be taking place instead of our usual Parent Evening.
