Mary's Story - Facing the loss of a loved one

Published on 29 January 2025 08:15 AM

Following the loss of her Husband, Mary bravely shared her story.
Mary's story, received by the Age UK Cornwall Active Living Support Service, highlights the power of connections following a loss.

The local Community Hub and our Active Living Service provided a comforting and empathic space for Mary to share her situation and feelings. By expressing her grief to a bereavement support group and support assistant, Mary was able to validate the pain being felt, gaining a sense of acceptance, reducing her isolation, and forming long-lasting connections.
