Because you wish you could be there
Send something practical and kind. Choose a direction, set your figure and write the message in your own voice; nothing else is added to the card.

Who it helps
Anyone who has lost someone, from a close friend to a colleague. Tea and comforting food are the usual choices.
Home delivery
Add the name of the recipient, and anything the household should know, when you enter the address.
