GRIEF IS REAL. GRIEF IS A NORMAL RESPONSE TO LOSS.
The COVID-19 Pandemic has intensified the normal losses of life.
Throughout life we can all expect to lose loved ones due to death
and we mourn those losses. However, we currently can’t share our
sorrow by attending funeral or memorial services, or by hugging
others who are hurting. Some people may also be struggling with
loss of a job or business, loss of a feeling of security, loss of
connections with friends and family, loss of your own health. A
loss is a loss, regardless of what has caused it.
The Greater Trail Hospice Society can support you
as you grieve what you have lost.
We have trained volunteers to listen to your story, help you
understand what symptoms are normal during grief, and provide
support so you can sift through your memories and pain, and move
forward in life.
Call 250-231-7344 to arrange an appointment.

DONATE A CAR
TO SUPPORT HOSPICE PROGRAMS
Do you have a car or truck sitting around that you don’t drive or
don’t need any more? Have you been wondering what you could
do with it?
If you donate it to the Greater Trail Hospice Society through
Donate a Car Canada they will pick up your vehicle for free, sell it or
junk it for scrap, and you will be sent a tax receipt for the value of
it. Hospice will then receive the proceeds of the sale to support our
on-going work with people who have a life-limiting illness or who
are grieving. This is another great way you can support our
community!

WE ARE STILL HERE FOR YOU DURING COVID-
19
The Greater Trail Hospice Society is able to accept new client
referrals at this time, however, until the Interior Health pandemic
directive is lifted, we have limited ability to provide the in-person
services we pride ourselves in delivering. We are currently working
on a safety plan to be able to provide some in-home visits.We can
and do, however, connect with and support clients using
technology by telephone or internet. For more information or to
make a referral, please call the Hospice office (250) 364-6204 and
someone will contact you before the end of the next business day.
