This has been a tough enough year for everyone but adding in grief and bereavement and not having the support there in person has made it even more difficult.
In a Mind Yourself Now special with Dermot and Dave, Orla Keegan Head of Education and Bereavement Services at the Irish Hospice Foundation, discussed how to tackle grief in your life and how 2020 could change the way we speak about the subject.
The Irish Hospice Foundation has developed a section on its website that specifically deals with grief during the pandemic, and it includes advice and information to help people of all ages who are grieving. Its national freephone bereavement service can be reached on 1800 80 70 77 from 10am to 1pm, Monday to Friday.
