Norwich
Norwich is a city in England’s County of Norfolk. Norwich Cathedral is a Romanesque building with ornate cloisters (NR1 4DH). Two imposing gates, St. Ethelbert’s (NR1 4DR) and Erpingham (NR3 1HF), lead to the Tombland area, which was once a Saxon marketplace. The Cathedral is jam-packed with history.
The Museum of Norwich at the Bridewell traces local history, including a re-created old pharmacy and exhibits on the textile industry (NR2 1AQ). It also has a 19th century hand-loom which has been restored to full working order. There are also tours to the undercroft which lies beneath the Bridewell and is the largest vaulted undercroft in the city.
Norwich Castle brings history fans and tourists from far and wide (NR1 3JU). The medieval royal fortification was founded in the aftermath of the Norman conquest of England when William the Conqueror ordered its construction because he wished to have a fortified place in the town of Norwich.

Don’t neglect your thinking about your finances when you are going through a tough time. Have you considered speaking to a financial planner?
The death of a spouse may result in dealing with very difficult financial matters, especially for those who may be inexperienced. Many counsellors comment that frequently, the anger part of the grieving process stems from a partner being left to deal with “money worries”. Often the person left behind has never ever had to deal with such matters as their partner took charge of bills etc. If the bereavement was premature or unexpected, this can be even more terrifying.
Not only is the bereaved dealing with their personal emotions and maybe those of their children or other family members, but they may have additional worries too. Within any relationship. one partner usually takes the lead in dealing with the day to day nitty-gritty and everyone becomes dependent on a partner for something.

Starting over again and the importance of financial planning
- How is the mortgage going to be paid?
- How are loans going to be dealt with?
- Is there a life assurance or pension plan to be claimed? If so, how to go about that.
- Has the deceased left a will? Where is it? What does it say?
- How should any available capital be made to work most effectively? Should it be invested?
Even where the finances have a semblance of being organised, there is worry about the future along with matters such as banking and how pensions and investments function. It takes an experienced and patient Financial Advisor to put a person’s mind at ease. Rarely is it a good idea to make big decisions in the aftermath of a bereavement as all opportunities have to be carefully considered. A good financial expert will advise with compassion and empathy. It’s all about reassurance. Matters which need to be dealt with quickly can be prioritised. Issues which may wait, can be revisited in the months to come.
