The first Christmas without a loved one can often be the hardest. The grief can feel even more intense if their passing occurred just before what is typically a season of joy and celebration.

For many, finding comfort in memories of happier times can offer some solace. Whether it's watching their favourite films, listening to meaningful songs, reminiscing through old photos, or holding onto cherished belongings, these moments of connection help keep their spirit with them.

An interesting article recently written by our CEO

Outdated methods, a lack of meaningful regulation, and a system that too often does not reflect what people actually want at the end of their lives have created a troubling reality.
