What people say about Good Grief Toys ®

"I just wanted to say that our set of Good Grief Toys have arrived and we absolutely LOVE them!!! So, so beautifully made and such good quality - we are all blown away! I will be taking them out to training sessions at schools and promoting them. We are also going to do some fundraising to buy sets for our support groups,

Thank you again!"

"I used the toys today in my session with a young person, and oh my word I literally came out buzzing.

He was the young one I mentioned that there was other stuff going on at home and I was unsure if it was Nanas death that he needed support with.

I placed all the toys out and he went straight for the figures and named who each one was and then went on to talk about his home life and what is happening. He even picked up the coffin and said oh let me just put nana in here as I can no longer see her now.

I have never had a first session before where I have received so much information, so thank you so much. I can’t wait to use them again. I am meeting a little boy tomorrow whose sister has a heart condition, and he is experiencing some separation anxiety from mum, so will be interesting to see what he does with them.

Thank you once again."
