The Compassionate Friends

EDM number 1777 in 2002-03, proposed by David Wilshire on 20/10/2003.

That this House records its admiration of the help given by the Compassionate Friends to over 50,000 bereaved parents since its foundations in 1969; and further records its respect for the members of the Compassionate Friends (all of whom are bereaved parents themselves) and their willingness to provide the type of support and friendship to bereaved parents that only similarly bereaved parents can give.

This motion has been signed by a total of 107 MPs.
