2020 has been a year of loss.
Nearly 1.5 million people have died from covid-19. Millions more have lost their health. We’ve lost our routines, our plans, many have lost their livelihoods. We’ve lost a whole world really, for every mention of the new normal, we’re grieving the old normal.
This year was a crash course in grief and loss. Some were new to it, others, already deeply familiar. But this type of loss, is new and unique to our time, our circumstances.
Chez Dunford is singer, songwriter, artist and performer. She is working on an ongoing project called Grief Notes, produced by Wyldwood Arts, which is a commission from Hope Support Services and Hospice UK to break down the stigma around hospices, death and dying amongst young people who have experienced the loss of a parent, or parents who have a terminal diagnosis.
