Welcome...
The Seddon Legacy Project was created in November 2024.
The project is a community project, created with the intent to improve access to services for families who have experienced bereavement.
It is completely voluntarily run by Northamptonshire mum-of-two, Anne-Marie, who has two small children. Her two sons, aged 4 and 2 at the time, sadly lost their father to suicide in April 2024.
​
"Hello to all families. I hope the project can bring you and your families children comfort during a time which for all, is extremely difficult to navigate.
I am happy you are here to reach out for extra support.
By the project being able to help you, your children. It helps me gain my sense of purpose and increase a feeling of worth to our sad loss.
It also helps to show the children, that through sadness, there is hope for us all.
Thank you for being here to read.
Anne-Marie x"

Project Aims:
SIMPLE
At The Seddon Legacy Project we are passionate about supporting bereaved children in a simple, yet effective way.
Peer / Social support led, we approach grief management in a personal and comfortable way.
COLLECTIVE
Alike many other services, the welfare of the child is the forefront of the support that is provided.
At The Seddon Legacy Project we aim to work collectively across multi-agencies.
We promise (with your consent) to ensure communication is effective across multi-agencies to promote consistency and accuracy.
INCLUSIVE
Many bereaved children can feel isolated and lonely.
At The Seddon Legacy Project we want to make all of the support we offer inclusive.
All support is FREE and ran by Anne-Marie.
SAFE
Safeguarding is EVERYONES responsibility.
During the experience of grief or bereavement, some children become extremely vulnerable. Ensuring the childs safety is priority, in line with safeguarding policy at The Seddon Legacy Project.
​
Anne-Marie has an Enhanced DBS for Children and Young Persons WorkForce.
Anne-Marie is always looking for continued personal and professional development to ensure the project is as safe as it can be, although the project is social based / led.
