The NAW
Why an association for widows and widowers?
Widowhood is not something that people easily talk about. It can be very hard when friends and family try to help, however without experiencing a loss themselves it can be hard.
The NAW is run for widows by widows who can offer support as well as a great opportunity to make friends and do the things you may not be able to on your own.
We know that adjusting to life without a partner is a slow and difficult process. The NAW are able to give support and by organising lunches, trips and holidays together and hope to make the healing process a little easier.
The NAW believes that what most widows and widowers need is to feel that they are not alone, that there are others who do understand how they feel and will offer unconditional, non-judgemental support.
