Since the first lockdown began in 2020, hundreds of thousands of people have died. Too many lives have been cut short and millions have been bereaved.
Behind the statistics and whatever the cause, every death has been devastating for the people left behind.
Please join together on 23 Marts, the first anniversary of the first UK lockdown, for a National Day of Reflection to reflect on our collective loss, support those who’ve been bereaved, and hope for a brighter future.
Der er stadig svære tider i vente, som antallet af dødsfald fortsætter med at stige. Denne årlige dag giver os al tid til at holde pause og tænke over det hidtil usete tab, vi står over for, og støtte hinanden gennem sorg i de kommende år.
På 12 middag bedes du deltage i det landsdækkende minuts stilhed for at reflektere og huske og senere kl. 20.00 mødes for at lyse op om natten. Stå udenfor med et lys - et lys, en fakkel, endda din telefon – at huske nogen, der er død, og vise din støtte til folk, der gennemgår en dødsfald. Alternatively, you can shine a light in your window for everyone to see.
You can also reach out to someone you know who is going through bereavement or pain by finding the time to call them for a chat, sending flowers or writing a card – letting them know that they and their loved one are not forgotten.
The National Day of Reflection is organised by the Marie Curie Charity and more details can be found on their website www.mariecurie.org.uk
