Simon Says became a registered charity in 2001 and was formally launched in 2002 with the aim of supporting children and young people within Hampshire, who have a close relative or friend who has died or is dying With information and resources Simon Says can help children cope with their feelings while holding onto memories of the person who has died Whether the death was sudden or expected, we work closely in practical and creative ways with all members of the family to create an atmosphere in which grief can be shared and the child or young person can be supported
