THE PRIMROSE Hospice has a digital tribute page for bereaved people grieving for their dads this Father’s Day.
The charity said for many it was difficult to know how to mark the day each June.
Remembrance can take many forms, from visiting a family spot or cooking his favourite meal or just setting aside a little time to look at photographs and reminisce.
Part of the support Primrose Hospice and Family Support Centre provides is to help its community through counselling for bereaved adults and children.
Among those they have been supporting are Frankie, Harry and Lily after their dad Craig died of cancer less than a year after his diagnosis.
Harry said “Primrose has helped me to understand that life doesn’t always go right and to help me deal with my dad dying.
“For Fathers Day this year I would like to go fishing because my dad liked fishing a lot.”
Lily has found socialising in the Primrose’s Teen Group – meeting people of her own age who have been through the same as her – has helped her realise she is not the only one dealing with parent loss.
For anyone who is struggling, the Primrose wants them to remember that grief is never a sign of weakness.
The charity said: “Grief is a result of a life full of love, a way to honour the love that we still have in our hearts, so why not take a moment to honour your father by posting a photograph, a heartfelt message or memory on their digital tribute page.”
