UNCOMFORTABLE as it is, the coronavirus pandemic means many of us will be forced to confront death in ways that we never could have comprehended just a few weeks ago.

Hide AdDying, death and bereavement are difficult to process at any time, but even more so now, when anxiety is high, and we are unable to come together to support each other, attend funerals or even simply say goodbye.
As such, we want to let your readers know that they are not alone, and that Marie Curie is here to help them.
As an end of life care charity, specialising in caring for dying people and their families, we appreciate how distressing this is for people.

Hide AdEditor’s note: first and foremost - and rarely have I written down these words with more sincerity - I hope this finds you well.
Almost certainly you are here because you value the quality and the integrity of the journalism produced by The Yorkshire Post’s journalists - almost all of which live alongside you in Yorkshire, spending the wages they earn with Yorkshire businesses - who last year took this title to the industry watchdog’s Most Trusted Newspaper in Britain accolade.
And that is why I must make an urgent request of you: as advertising revenue declines, your support becomes evermore crucial to the maintenance of the journalistic standards expected of The Yorkshire Post. If you can, safely, please buy a paper or take up a subscription. We want to continue to make you proud of Yorkshire’s National Newspaper but we are going to need your help.
