A REKNOWNED expert on grief and loss is hosting a seminar on caring for the bereaved.

Dr Bill Webster, director of the Centre for the Grief Journey, will speak at Epping Forest Burial Park, in Kiln Road, North Weald next Tuesday, May 18.

During the seminar, Dr Webster will speak about his own personal story of grief when his wife died suddenly and how he came to terms with his loss.

The seminar starts at 3.30pm with a charity exhibition, refreshments and horse-drawn woodland tours.

It is particularly aimed at members of the caring professions but is open to the general public.
