Time to Grieve is a UK-based campaign calling for a legal right to paid bereavement leave for all.

Time to Grieve was created from a simple but urgent belief: no one should have to choose between their job and their grief.

At present, there is no legal right to paid bereavement leave in the UK, except in limited cases such as the death of a child. While some employers offer compassionate leave, policies vary significantly and some workplaces don’t offer any support at all. Far too many people only discover this when they lose someone and are refused the time off they need.

Time to Grieve is campaigning to change the law so that every worker in the UK is entitled to paid
time off when they lose a loved one, allowing them to navigate their grief without financial pressure or fear of losing their job.
