*What we offer*

MEET LOCAL PEOPLE LIKE YOU
Connect with people who share a similar loss experience to you. Browse our member directory and connect via moderated groups, one-on-one chats, or our weekly events.

SUPPORT GROUPS TO SHARE STORIES
Join support groups and realise that everything you’re going through is normal. Send messages any time of day or night, there’s always someone to listen. Share stories in our live weekly video and audio calls - they’re like peer therapy.

PRIVATE CHAT HELPLINE
Get help from real humans anytime through our private chat helpline. Our team is like your companion, always on-hand to talk if you feel low, or assist you with everything from registering the death to applying for time off work.

GET EXPERT ADVICE
Every week we host live video events with bereavement experts, so you can learn about grief and ask questions. There’s also a library of articles and videos to help you with every step of the way, from the first weeks to ten year anniversary.

SAFE MODERATED COMMUNITY
Your safety is really important so we moderate the community. Grief can make you feel like everything is pointless or you don’t want to be here anymore. Whilst we’re not a crisis service, we do have a specially trained team to spot and support people who are feeling very low.

SELECTED SERVICES FOR YOU
Whatever you need help with, our team can match you to the right expert to help. We work with carefully selected partners such as funeral directors, account/asset locators, therapists, solicitors, house removers, financial advisors. This is a paid-for service, and how we are able to offer everything else for free.


*What our members are saying*

"The community hosts are wonderfully welcoming, patient and empathetic. Untangle is a safe space to share where all are supportive."
Andrew, lost his wife to cancer three years ago

"I'm just trying to get through each day at the moment. Knowing there is support when I need it has been a lifesaver. The Untangle team helped me get time off work and organise the funeral."
Sam, lost his brother two weeks ago

"The first 10 weeks post-funeral were the worst of my life. I found Untangle while not even conscious about what I was doing. I met people who understood me, and got the support I needed - it was like therapy!"
Leanne, lost her mum 8 months ago
