The Child Bereavement Charity is committed to the principles and standards required by The Information Standard and has been certified as a quality provider of health and social care information.

The Information Standard is a certification scheme for health and social care information established by the Department of Health.  It has been introduced to fulfill the need for a quality “filter” for health and social care information to help people to identify good quality information and to decide which information is reliable and trustworthy.

The Child Bereavement Charity produces many freely downloadable information sheets and accreditation by the Information Standard demonstrates our adherence to appropriate processes and production methods to ensure our materials are accurate, accessible, impartial, balanced and based on available quality evidence.  We can now display the Information Standard mark on all our new or revised information materials.  

All new and revised Information sheets developed by the Child Bereavement Charity will carry The Information Standard logo.  However, other parts of our website, including user-generated information, are excluded from the standard. The Child Bereavement Charity is responsible for the information on our website and neither Capita, who operate the scheme, nor the Department of Health, who own the scheme, have any responsibility for the accuracy or relevance of this information.
