Teign Angels No asterisks, no gimmicks, just care as it should be

Our story began in October 2016, and has been built with our ethos of providing 'the gold standard' of truly person-centred care at the heart of it. We are proud to provide a service that changes the lives of adults across Newton Abbot and its surrounding areas.

'I’ve definitely got something out of my placement with Teign Angels. I’ve learned so much being here'.

We sat down with our work placement from Exeter College, who was with us from September to December, to find out what they thought about their placement with us.

So if you run into a problem, we'll be on the end of the phone!

Our bereavement and grief hub is now live.

We've been working hard on our hubs over the past few months. We're incredibly grateful that Charley, our work placement from Exeter College, has put together three leaflets describing anticipatory grief, ambiguous loss, and disenfranchised grief are - all of which are available on the hub.

We also talk about grief journeys, because every experience with grief is unique. Some people find thinking of grief as a process can be really helpful; others may not, or may think they're 'grieving wrong' because they're finding they're not following a process. The important thing to remember is that your grief is yours; it belongs to you. There's no right or wrong way to grieve or feel.

And we also have some links to information about lesser known types of grief: parasocial grief; and special interest grief. And we have links to services that may be helpful following a bereavement or in times of grief.

Remembrance Day 2025.

We remember all who served, and continue to serve, in the fight to protect the freedoms we hold dear today.

Service takes many forms. From frontlines to bedsides, extraordinary care has been given in times of conflict. Today, we honour soldiers of all ranks, as well as medics, nurses, and care staff who have given their lives for others, and who continue to serve and protect to this day.

The Herbert Protocol can be an invaluable piece of planning. We've supported a number of people to get it in place for themselves or their loved ones. We recommend having a look to see if the Herbert Protocol is right for you or someone you know 🌷

Talking about death and dying can be incredibly hard. Talking about it with children can sometimes feel even harder.

We now have a copy of 'Goodbye Mog' by Judith Kerr, for anyone we support or any of our team to borrow, to help open up conversations around death and dying with young children.

'Preparing children for a family member's death can be incredibly difficult. We hope that this book will help open up these important conversations, if people are finding it difficult to do otherwise' says Joseph, our Office Manager.

Anyone we support or any of our team who wants to borrow our copy of 'Goodbye Mog', contact our office and we'll arrange getting it out to you.
