Celebrities pay tribute to lost loved ones ahead of nationwide memorial toast
Celebrities share personal tributes to lost loved ones as a poll finds 26% of bereaved adults avoid talking about their grief.
On Monday, May 25, the nationwide Big Toast invites the public to raise a glass at 7pm to those who shaped their lives, marking an annual memorial moment.
Celebrities including Dame Prue Leith and Sir Stephen Fry have shared moving video tributes honoring lost loved ones ahead of the nationwide memorial.
Remembering her brother, Prue called Jamie a "wonderful man," while Fry praised the "brilliance" of his late friend Christopher Hitchens.
Across the UK, more than 650 Craft Union pubs will host a special Big Toast Pub Quiz on Monday, supporting the memorial event.
Research from OnePoll of 1,000 bereaved adults found 49 per cent said loss affected them more than they let on, demonstrating shared remembrance's value.
