Is there a right time?
Any time. The first days bring many gestures; one that arrives weeks later, when things are quieter, stands out.

The moment
When a card alone doesn't feel like enough
For a friend, a family or a colleague going through a loss: choose the kind of gift, set what you want to spend and put your sympathy into words.
What to write
Tell them you are sorry and that they are not alone. The card assistant can help you find gentle words.
For anyone grieving
A friend, a neighbour or a whole family. Tea and simple comfort food are chosen most; pick the direction that fits.
Sending to a home
Enter the recipient's name with the address, plus any note for the family, so it goes to the right person.
