This paper describes a collaborative partnership in developing a children and young persons' bereavement group. The course consists of a series of four sessions which encourage children to share and express feelings. The group uses a partnership approach. Whereas previous groups were hospice counsellor led, the new model is for co-facilitation by the counsellor and a specialist nurse from a regional oncology centre. The success of this collaboration was demonstrated through positive evaluations from children and their families, and the facilitators.
