𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞. 💬

Do you want to talk about later life plans but your family don’t want to talk it through with you? We are happy to come and have the 'conversation of a lifetime' with you to help you plan for the future.

We have thought provoking resources that we can bring with us, and we are very knowledgeable. 💭

There is no sales pitch, just a chat over a cup of tea, we’ll even bring the biscuits! ☕

It can be one to one or we can come to a group. However you want to chat is fine.

Tomorrow marks the beginning of National Grief Week

This year, the theme of the week is 'Growing with Grief'

'𝘓𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦, 𝘪𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘣𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘴'
🌱 🌻

This theme reminds you that you’re not failing if you’re still grieving. You’re adapting, reshaping, and learning to carry something heavy with more steadiness than before.

The Good Grief Trust is run by the bereaved, for the bereaved. They aim to normalise grief and raise awareness of the impact of grief.

https://www.thegoodgrieftrust.org/

There is no right or wrong way to grieve, and everyone is different.

Let this week be a reminder that you are not alone, say their name and share memories about your loved one, look back at photographs and smile at the memories, restart that hobby that you both loved to do!

🕯️ Barringtons would like to take this opportunity to remind you of our Community Christmas Memorial Service on Saturday 6th December, 4pm at St Faith's Church, Crosby. ⭐

This is a time for the local community to come together with people in similar situations and remember all our loved ones, light a candle in their memory and hang a tag on our tree. 🎄

For more information or support, please get in touch with us.

Have you seen our 𝑳𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒏 post box?! ✉️

It is based in and outside our Netherton funeral home, and can be accessed Monday - Friday 9-5.

Writing to someone who is no longer here can be a therapeutic way of airing your feelings about them and may be helpful with grieving. We don't really write things down any more so handwriting something is special.

Everyone is welcome to post their letters, birthday cards or other special occasion cards.
Whether Barringtons looked after you and your family funeral or not, please pop in with your post! 🕊️

Happy Movember 🧔

Did you know, November is men's mental health month
The overall aim of this movement is to raise awareness and help fund life-changing projects for men's health.

The movement was started by two friends in 2003, with the official charity starting up in 2004 and has since become global! 🌎.
Movember supports men's physical and mental health by funding initiatives that encourage men to talk, seek help, and take charge of their wellbeing.

Here's a fact for you: More than 6 million people have participated in Movember globally since its inception!🧔

According to research, 80% of men say they feel alone in their grief.

The team at Barringtons are always here for you to talk to, no matter who you are or how you are grieving. Whether it's a friendly face and a cuppa you need, or more support, we are here to look after you and guide you through these times.

A local charity we have supported for around 5 years is Sean's Place.
Sean’s Place is dedicated to providing practical, proactive mental health support to men in Sefton experiencing poor mental health and isolation.

If you or someone you know would benefit from a bit of extra support, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Please remember; 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙫𝙖𝙞𝙡𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚.
Reach out to that mate that seemed a little bit down, call your brother, uncle, dad, nephew. Check in with them.
Men, the support is out there. 🤍
