Losing a loved one is a terrible time for anyone, more so for a child coming to terms with a loss. Grief Encounter is a child bereavement charity dedicated to help ease the pain caused by the death of someone close, the charity helps families address a multitude of challenging issues following a death of a loved one, alleviating the hurt and confusion caused, whilst promoting healing.

The announcement was broadcast live on ITV's Good Morning Britain, and was part of their #1MillionMinutes campaign, an initiative that aims to raise awareness of loneliness in the UK through volunteering.
