Today is the National Day of Reflection 2021
It is so hard to believe that it has been a year since the first lockdown began in 2020. Sadly hundreds of thousands of people have died around the word and in the UK. So many lives have been abruptly cut short by the Covid 19 virus and multiple families and friends have been bereaved unexpectedly.
These deaths have been utterly devastating for all the people who are left behind and who are now struggling with their grief and despair. This is the day to reflect on all our collective losses, to step up and support the bereaved and to hold the hope for better times to emerge from this difficult time.
Let us pause and think of our loved ones, our friends, our mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews, those who have died and those who grieve.
