Christmas Plan

8. If You Are Alone on Christmas Day
• Plan something gentle and meaningful for yourself:
• A favourite meal or treat (even if it’s simple)
• A nature walk or a look at the sky from your window
• A Christmas video call with someone supportive
• Listening to music and resting
• Being alone does not mean you are forgotten or less deserving of joy.

Remembrance Day
On the 11th of November, we pause to honour the women and men who have served and sacrificed in times of war, conflict, and peacekeeping. At 11am, we observe a minute of silence to reflect on their courage, resilience, and the freedoms we hold today.
