National Day of Reflection

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. Many have been unable to properly say goodbye to their loved ones, comfort or even hug each other.

As a nation, we need to acknowledge the millions in silent pain. So join us on 23 March, the first anniversary of the first UK lockdown, for a National Day of Reflection.

Let’s come together to reflect on our collective loss, support those who’ve been bereaved, and hope for a brighter future.


There are still tough times ahead, as the death toll continues to rise. So whatever your background, whatever your beliefs, and whatever you’ve been through, please join us for our first National Day of Reflection.

This annual day will give us all time to pause and think about this unprecedented loss we’re facing, and support each other through grief in the years to come.
