We know that every individual experiences or reacts to grief in their own personal way; each loss is unique. Befrienders are themselves survivors, they are bereaved parents, siblings, partners, family members and friends. Peer Support is provided by our team of FFAMS Befrienders, who offer their experience, knowledge, emotional and practice support All our services are free of any charge and can be easily accessed via, telephone, face-to-face, group support or by email. FFAMS operates a grass roots Befriending Service. Telephone and Email support providing free and confidential support and advice. Befrienders will have experienced the loss of a loved one through murder and suicide. Alternatively they will have themselves attempted suicide or had suicidal thoughts. The death of a loved one can cause great pain and sadness whatever the cause of death. However when a loved one has died through murder or suicide, it’s a devastating double tragedy. Not only will they have the shock of the unexpected death, they also have the trauma of the manner of the death, sometimes through violent circumstances. The bereaved often struggle with a complex range of additional pressures, and emotions including; deep shock, guilt, self-blame, trauma and anger.

Mixed anxiety and depression is the most common mental disorder in Britain. This may be as a result of a traumatic situation but sometimes the causes are less easily identified. Cogwheel is able to provide the early intervention which is shown by research be to be the most effective solution and prevents more complex health and social needs from developing, whatever the cause or reason for the disorder. Cogwheel has a large team of trained counsellors experienced in various psychotherapeutic disciplines and techniques. All counsellors receive regular supervision to ensure best practice. Our counsellors give their time on a voluntary basis or at subsidised rates so we are able to bring help to substantial numbers of people. In 2011 we provided approximately 3600 counselling sessions to vulnerable people in Cambridgeshire, 50% of whom were referred to us by their GPs. Even though participants are on limited incomes we do ask them to make a donation, whatever they feel able to give. This encourages participants to commit to attending sessions and to engage with the support made available. We have counselling rooms in a number of locations throughout Cambridgeshire.
