For many, this time of year is a time of reflection. A MuchLoved tribute page offers a unique space to remember, share, and celebrate the life of a loved one.

Personalise your page with photos, cherished memories, and stories, and invite family and friends to connect in memory.

We're proud to have helped raise money for charity through our partnership with the platform.

If you’d like to create a tribute, speak to one of our team, we'd love to help.

As we approach the festive season, bereavement support is so important.

This can involve creating new traditions, honouring memories, and prioritising self-care. It's also helpful to talk to your family about everyone's needs, make plans but allow for flexibility, and give yourself permission to not be okay.

A funeral plan is an easy way to arrange the funeral you want in advance. A plan allows you to specify your wishes and pay for the funeral director’s services included in your plan. As our customers often tell us, that can bring peace of mind to you and your family.

Bereavement, loss & grief can be a dark time. There is a light that shines through and whilst the journey is hard, with help and support, you can find a way through.

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” - John 1:5.

What happens if there is a sudden or unexpected death?

If the doctor is unable to issue the medical certificate of cause of death, the death will be referred to the coroner. A coroner’s officer will be in touch to discuss this with you and a post-mortem examination may be needed to determine the cause of death. Following the examination, the coroner’s officer will advise you when you may register the death.

We are happy to accommodate the needs of any culture or religion and will endeavour to assist you with the utmost courtesy and sensitivity.

If the person who has died was not religious, you may feel it fitting to have a non-religious service. We can arrange the services of a funeral celebrant.

Our team can arrange a service that meets your individual requirements and will help create a tribute that reflects the person’s life.
