Sadly not everyone that comes to hospital gets better. Ensuring a dignified death is something we’re very proud to support.
Giving a gift to remember a family member, friend or colleague can bring comfort at a time of great sadness. Your gift will honour the life of your loved one and make a meaningful difference to the lives of patients and staff here at Southmead Hospital.
Here are some of the ways you can choose to remember your loved one:
Please contact Hannah, who will be there alongside you to help you create a legacy for your loved one.
Create a dedicated online space to celebrate and remember your loved one.
Organise a collection in lieu of flowers at your loved one’s funeral or memorial.
Celebrate the life of someone special by making an online dedication and sharing a precious memory, thought or photo.
You may choose to also make a one off gift in their memory to support patients, their families and staff at our hospitals.
We know that no-one can understand exactly what your loss feels like to you. But we do understand that it’s sometimes easier to talk to someone outside of your friends and family about grief.
GriefChat was created by bereavement experts and by clicking on the GriefChat box below, you can chat directly to a specially trained bereavement counsellor.
The team of counsellors is experienced in supporting bereaved people and will listen to your story, explore how your grief is affecting you and help you to find any additional support you might need.
It’s a completely free service and is available Monday-Friday, 9am-9pm (except Bank Holidays) or by email out of these hours.
Giving in memory of a loved one is a deeply personal experience. Hannah can support you throughout this process.
