Matthew Reed, chief executive of Marie Curie said: “With our fourth Day of Reflection just days away, Marie Curie is urging the nation to take a moment to remember all the people who died during the pandemic and to show support for those who are bereaved.

"New data has confirmed what we are seeing on the ground. The pandemic endures in the minds of people who were bereaved, and huge swathes of the public are still grieving.

"Please show your support for them this Sunday, and if you need help with your grief, know that Marie Curie is here for you and ready to talk.”
