A note on support
We're not a crisis service — if you need urgent help, please see urgent help.
However you're connected to sport, there's a way to get involved — see our Get involved page for clubs, funders, partners, universities, and research collaboration.

S'port for Grief is a sport-based social enterprise that uses sport to build connection, grief awareness, and emotional wellbeing. We help clubs, coaches, young people, and families become more grief-aware and supportive, and we provide free resources and signposting to trusted bereavement services.
No. We are not a clinical, counselling, therapy, or emergency service. We focus on grief awareness, education, community connection, sport-based support, free resources, and signposting. For clinical support, we point people toward the specialist organisations in our support directory.
Sports clubs, coaches, young people, parents and guardians, schools and youth organisations, volunteers, and community partners — anyone who wants sport to be a more grief-aware, supportive space.
Clubs can register their interest to become a Grief-Aware Club, invite us to run an event, or join the Club Aware Map. Head to Get involved to start the conversation.
A grief-aware club is one whose coaches and committee understand how grief can affect young people, know how to respond supportively, and know where to signpost for specialist help. See the Grief Aware Club pilot for more.
Grief Ambassador Training, Coach Education, and the free Volunteer Online Course are in development — see What we do.
Yes. Our online resources, signposting directory, and planned volunteer course are free — see the resource hub.
