Bereavement Company Leave: How Long?

I saw this article on the BBC website which discusses Facebook's decision to clarify their policy re leave taken following bereavement.

Thank You


I have been meaning to write this blog for ages, so apologies that it has taken so long...

Being constantly surrounded by the sadness of death can make for a challenging life at times and, sometimes, it does feel rather overwhelming. But I really appreciate and take great encouragement from the wonderful feedback and thank you's that families send me. I'm sure I have said this before, but with so much going on at a time of bereavement, I am always rather surprised that anyone finds time  to say thank you - but so many do and it is always so appreciated. 

I rarely quote feedback on the website - it feels a bit too "me, me, me" but I will share this because the words really touched me: "Words can't express how special you made the service for my husband. It was emotional, heart warming, spoken with compassion and care". How wonderful is that?
