Division of Heart Angels
One of the three Nationwide Divisions of the association is the division of Heart Angels – a division for the members who have lost a child for CHD. The activity of the division is small scale, concentrating mainly on offering peer support.
There are several channels through which the families who have lost a child can receive support. Also other organisations and associations provide support and activities for the families who have suffered a loss. For example Käpy ry has a free helpline every Monday and Thursday 8:30 am – 11.30 am. Call # 0800 95959. On-call personnel have lost a child themselves.
