Since the first lockdown began in 2020, hundreds of thousands of people have died. Too many lives have been cut short and millions have been bereaved.

Behind the statistics and whatever the cause, every death has been devastating for the people left behind.

So today, on 23 March, the first anniversary of the first UK lockdown, we have joined together for a National Day of Reflection to reflect on our collective loss and hope for a brighter future.

If you want to get involved why don't you & your family stand outside tonight at 8pm for a minutes silence or alternatively place a light in your window to show your support.
