On Tuesday, business leader, Stuart Tait spent the morning with the brilliant team at If U Care Share Foundation, delivering a bespoke session on the realities of the funeral profession. 💙

The seminar “Dispelling the Myths of the Funeral Director” explored what really happens behind the scenes when families place their trust in Derek Moss & Charles Embleton Funeral Directors. Stuart shared insights into the care, respect, and attention that guide every step of the process, helping to open up conversations that people often find difficult to approach.

The team at If U Care Share were incredibly welcoming, and their openness, questions, and thoughtful discussion made the session both engaging and meaningful. It’s always a privilege to support organisations who work so passionately to help others. 💙 We are already looking forward to meeting you again soon for another session.

If your organisation would benefit from one of our seminars, or if you’d simply like to learn more, we’d love to hear from you.

Yesterday, Funeral Service Arranger Kevin Taylor had the honour of taking baby Madison on her final journey, accompanied by Johnny Cash and Amigo.

A beautiful and heartfelt farewell for a precious little girl taken far too soon. Bespoke drapes were created, adding a personal and meaningful touch to the day.

With sincere thanks to our friends at North East Carriage Company as always for their valued assistance.

Our heartfelt condolences to baby Madison’s family and loved ones 🩷🦋

We remember those who gave their tomorrow for our today.
