Over the past few days, our team has had the pleasure of delivering Easter eggs to organisations with staff working throughout the Easter period.

This small gesture is a token of our sincere appreciation for the dedication, resilience, and hard work shown by those continuing to support others during this time. We hope it brings a smile to your faces and lets you know just how valued your efforts truly are. 💛

On Thursday, Rebecca, our Funeral Director, was proud to attend a very positive meeting focused on making Stafford a more dementia-friendly town.

It was encouraging to see so many people come together, including the newly appointed Chief Constable, Saqib Butt, representatives from the fire service, local businesses, and community groups — all with a shared goal of better supporting those living with dementia and the people around them.

One of the key takeaways was how small, thoughtful adjustments can have a huge impact. Something as simple as a black mat at an entrance can appear like a hole to someone with dementia, while patterned flooring or curtains may look like moving insects. By understanding this, we can make simple changes to create safer, more welcoming environments for everyone.

It was also fantastic to hear about the initiative at Asda Stafford, introducing quiet hours Monday to Friday between 2.00pm and 3.00pm — a change that not only supports those living with dementia but also benefits people on the autism spectrum and others who may need a calmer shopping experience. A great example of how small changes can make a big difference.

As a business, this really resonated with us. It highlighted how important it is to continually learn, adapt, and consider the individual needs of the families we support — especially during such sensitive times.

There was also an important discussion around the support available to those living with dementia after the loss of a partner, and where more can be done. This is something we feel strongly about and are keen to explore further.

We’re looking forward to being part of this ongoing conversation and helping to raise awareness within our community. Education is key, and together we can make Stafford a more understanding and supportive place for everyone.

If you are involved in supporting people living with dementia, we would love to hear from you.

Our next meeting will take place on Thursday 21st May at 10.00am in the community room at Asda Stafford.

What an incredible night of community spirit and courage ❤️🔥

Together, we raised over £20,000 for Katharine House Hospice by taking part in a truly unforgettable fire walk. Seeing so many people come together for such a meaningful cause was nothing short of inspiring.

A special mention to Rebecca, our amazing Funeral Director, who bravely took on the challenge—walking across hot coals to help raise vital funds for this wonderful charity. We are so proud of you!

Moments like these remind us of the power of community and compassion. Feeling truly blessed to have been part of something so special 💫

🐣 Easter Egg Collection for Our Local Community 🐣

This Easter we’re collecting Easter eggs to donate to local food banks and community hubs.

We know times are tough for many people at the moment, but even a small Easter treat can mean a great deal to families who may not otherwise receive one. A simple chocolate egg can help bring a smile and a little bit of Easter joy. 💛

If you’d like to take part, you can drop off Easter eggs at our Rising Brook office. Every donation, big or small, will help us support local people and families in our community.

Thank you to everyone who helps us make a difference. 🐰🍫

On the 27th March, our wonderful Funeral Director, Rebecca, will be taking part in a fire walk to support Katharine House Hospice — stepping across glowing coals in aid of a charity that means so much to so many families in our community.

While the heat beneath her feet will be intense, it is nothing compared to the warmth, compassion and care shown every single day by the incredible team at Katharine House Hospice. Rebecca is taking on this challenge to help ensure that those facing some of life’s most difficult moments are met with dignity, comfort and kindness.

As a team, we are incredibly proud to support Rebecca in this challenge. Her courage, compassion and dedication truly reflect the values we hold close to our hearts when caring for families.

If you are able to, please consider supporting Rebecca by making a donation to this wonderful cause. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps the hospice continue their vital work.

Please also help us by sharing this post so we can raise as much awareness and support as possible for Katharine House Hospice.

Good luck, Rebecca — we are all behind you and couldn’t be prouder.
