Thank you to all the team, including Peter and James, who recently received these kind words from a family.

“It all went very well yesterday. Peter and James and the driver of the limo did a great job. It was a lovely service and all the family found it to be moving and a really appropriate send-off. Thanks for all your help.”

Well done to all the team who recently received these words of gratitude from a family we supported:

“The team at Painters provided exceptional service and professionalism during a very difficult time. Donna, James, Emma, and Peter showed empathy, kindness, and respect throughout the funeral arrangements for my late father in law. Their care and attention to detail were outstanding, and they helped us navigate the process with dignity and compassion. We are grateful for their support and would highly recommend their services to others. Thank you, James, Donna, Emma, Peter, and the entire team, for honouring my father in laws memory with such care and devotion."

Being proactive.

Grief can be isolating and it’s tempting to stay at home over the cold Christmas period. But it’s important to get yourself out of the house to prevent isolation. A winter walk for some fresh air could be a good way to relieve anxiety.

Focussing on the needs of others is a very rewarding experience and encourages you to engage with different people. For that reason, volunteering is a good way to help cope with grief. It also allows those who want to skip the festivities an opportunity to feel good during Christmas.

Traditions

Many of us practice annual Christmas traditions. When you’re grieving it may help to create new ones to honour the one you have lost. Eating their favourite meal, listening to their favourite song or visiting their final resting place are all good ways to continue to feel close to them during the festive season.

Alternatively, keeping up old traditions can bring comfort but don’t feel pressured to celebrate ‘as normal’. Take your time and do what feels right for you.

Writing a Christmas card to someone who’s grieving can be tough.

Many of us worry about finding the “right” words to say. Cruse Bereavement Support has created a helpful guide with tips, like:
• Avoid generic messages like ‘Happy/Merry Christmas’.
• Leave out any mention of their grief for the person they’ve lost.
• Acknowledge their loss by saying, ‘I know this year has been difficult, and this Christmas might feel different.’

For more guidance on what to say to those grieving this holiday season, visit: https://www.cruse.org.uk/christmas/what-to-say-at-christmas/

Let’s spread kindness and compassion this Christmas.
