It's Wednesday, and we've another turn under the spotlight - continuing our series where we share a little more about ‘Who We Are’.

Each post, we’ll be introducing you to one of the friendly faces you might see or speak to when you get in touch with us. From our team’s roles to their names and faces - you’ll get to know the people behind our name.

We’ll also share a bit of our history, what we stand for, and why we’re so passionate about providing care with compassion and respect in every moment. As an established, trusted and respected name in the funeral profession, we strive to deliver our ‘traditional values with a modern approach’.

So, whether you’ve known us for years or are just finding out who we are, we hope this series brings you closer to the people who make our work possible and allows you to get to know ‘Who We Are’.

Last week, we had the honour of directing a truly touching farewell, a funeral with personal touches of the family's homeland of New Zealand, with rugby and football shirts, personal guitars, music and the family’s beloved dog walking behind the coffin, a loyal companion to the very end.

The long life of a very much loved and respected lady was celebrated last week.

We had the privilege of taking the born and bred Burwash resident on her final journey, complete with her crash helmet proudly displayed on the coffin.

She was a lifelong motorbike enthusiast, attending her last motorbike show at the age of 95! Life goals!

Mental health is more than a small part of our lives – it’s every moment of every day. Today, October 10th, is World Mental Health Day.

Mental health matters on the days when everything happens and the days when nothing happens. When life is busy and unpredictable, and when it’s quiet and ordinary too.
..That’s why we fight every day, to support more people tomorrow.

We are proud to be supporting The National Hygiene Bank's

One car repair. One lost job. One unexpected bill.

That’s all it takes for millions of UK adults to be pulled into hygiene poverty, and many of us are struggling with these stresses alone.

National Hygiene Week is taking place from 6th to 12th October 2025 to raise awareness about hygiene poverty.
