A member of the Never Alone group in Eastbourne shares his views on the group: “I think the greatest benefit is that it creates a safe space. People are going through a difficult time emotionally, now we have somewhere we can come and be with other people who are going through similar feelings. There’s an understanding and a sense of belonging which is quite powerful.”
As a 10th generation family-run funeral directors, C.P.J. Field experiences first-hand the impact of loneliness and is passionate about serving and supporting charities and initiatives within the community and is proud to play an active role in communities it serves.
