Many people going through mourning wish they could have another word with their loved ones.

The first postbox to heaven was installed at the Gedling Crematorium in Matilda’s native Nottingham.
This idea had extra meaning to their family as Matilda’s grandmother worked at the post office.
The ability to reach out to loved ones in a tactile way brought comfort to many people.

Losing a loved one is difficult for anyone.
The grief of not having that person around anymore is unquantifiable.
This can be especially difficult for children.
