The Lost Collective

Resources

We have collated a wide range of free and low-cost resources that have been recommended by our community. What works for and helps one person may not be the same for someone else, so we have included as many different options as we can.

Please do let us know if there is something you would like us to add.

Here we share a list of national charities providing information and support for those who are grieving the loss of a loved one, including those who specialise in baby loss.

There are a number of charities and services that help with making memories with your baby, including planning funerals.

Many people find reading a huge comfort following their loss. Here we share a range of books on loss, grief and mental health that people in our community have found helpful.

Hearing people share their experiences of loss and life thereafter can help people to feel less alone. Here we share a wide range of podcasts that we hope you will find comforting.

Here we share other resources that we think could be helpful to you on your grieving journey.

Watching other people’s experiences of depictions of grief can be very healing for many. Here we have collated some movies, documentaries and TV series that others have found helpful.
