Join together to remember someone special

We know that grief does not go away with time, but rather stays with us as we move through life. This can feel lonely at times and joining together to remember and appreciate the life of someone special with the Sue Ryder community brings comfort to many.

Please join us at St Matthew's Church on Wednesday 11th December to:

  • Write a personal dedication to someone special for display on our memory wall
  • Add their name to our dedication screen
  • Listen to readings and music
  • Talk to others who are living with grief
  • Find out about Sue Ryder’s grief support

Sue Ryder Celebrate a Life Gloucestershire is open to anyone who wishes to remember someone important, regardless of when they died and if they were a patient of Sue Ryder.

There is no cost for attending this event.
