Decolonising the aftermath of death in UK contexts
Innovative decolonising work always entails going beyond diversity, but has only recently been raised in relation to ‘bereavement studies’. This paper explores what it may entail to ‘decolonise’ death and its continuing aftermath in the lives of the living. In the UK, documented experiences of racialised inequalities and discrimination have clearly evidenced the pervasiveness of institutional racism across many key areas of life. In the bereaveme…
If I break your leg, you won’t ask me to fix it for you
This paper acknowledges that decolonising white-led UK bereavement services is an ambitious endeavour, addressing the arrogance and inequities embedded in the Whiteness of coloniality/modernity. Specialised ‘bereavement support services’ (BSS) may in themselves represent an anachronism of a modernity whose core narrative of control and progress through rational scientific knowledge is profoundly challenged by death. In this paper, we address theo…
A phenomenological enquiry into the impact of bereavement by suicide over the life course
Suicide can negatively impact the lives of bereaved individuals. Quantitative research implemented to study this impact has produced findings based upon a limited exploration of the phenomena, with a focus on acute grief and symptomology. This narrow focus, alongside the methodological issues apparent in suicide bereavement research, has prompted the current study to explore from a phenomenological perspective, the impact of suicide bereavement o…
Exploring the relationship
This study looks at the stories that foster carers and the young people in their care jointly construct as they engage in discussion about their relationship. The research aimed to explore both the meanings that they hold regarding the development of this relationship and the patterns of contributions they make as they engage in their conversations. Four dominant narrative themes emerged: talking being central; the relationship and placement bein…
The Feasibility of Using “Premiestart,” a Mother–premature Infant Interaction Program, on a Neonatal Unit in England
This article explores the feasibility of running “PremieStart,” a nine‐individual‐session maternal–premature infant interaction program, within a neonatal unit (NNU) in England. Four mothers of premature infants completed seven sessions on the NNU and two at home. Mothers and NNU staff provided feedback on PremieStart. Measures of maternal–infant relationship, maternal well‐being, and maternal reflective functioning were completed before and afte…
