Grief Postcards provide you with the opportunity to say some last words to people you have loved and lost. It acts like a digital shrine for people who have died, an archive of memories and words we wish someone could hear.
The postcards have been created for those who feel out of place attending a funeral, or for those who have to remain anonymous in their grief. Additionally, there were many during the Covid-19 pandemic who were unable to say goodbye to loved ones. Maybe someone was never aware of the impact they had on us before they died, and we feel we have words to say remaining. Grief postcards give you the chance to speak those words...
Both designs can be found in Chatham Library and Rochester Library. At Chatham you will find them in the entrance foyer and in Rochester they are on the leaflet rack next to the children's library entrance door. The postcards are pre-addressed, all you need to do is attach a stamp and post. This step in itself provides a ceremonial send off, which sometimes isn’t an opportunity everyone has been given.
