Cooper & Son Funeral Directors

24/12/2025

Three marathons. Two weeks. One cause.

Anastasia, our Funeral Director at Cooper & Son in Lewes, is running Brighton, Newport, and London back-to-back this April. For Samaritans. For her mum, who died by su***de in 2008. For herself, because she's called Samaritans when things got dark and she knows the voice on the other end of that line can be the difference between making it through the night and not.

Sunday was her first fundraising day. Six hours. £1,022.13 raised. But something else happened too.

People stopped. They talked. They shared stories of loss, of struggle, of the moments when everything felt impossible. They just wanted someone to listen. That's what Samaritans do.

Next fundraiser: 30th January, Tesco Superstore, Lewes.

The total is in. £449.02 for the Royal British Legion.

Thank you to everyone who supported our Remembrance Sunday collection. The tea. The donations. The two-minute silence at 11am, when the whole room stood still together.

Your generosity matters. Thank you.

🎁✨ Thursday night in Lewes looked exactly how we hoped.

Late-night shopping. Families dropping off presents. Children popping in for treats. And a steady stream of tea, coffee, cake, and mulled wine that kept the evening warm as the temperature dropped outside.

Thanks to everyone who showed up, donated, or simply stopped in. We raised over £300 for Rockinghorse Children's Charity , the official charity of the Royal Alexandra Children's Hospital.

And thank you to our Funeral Director, Anastasia Meldrum, for putting it all together.
