Blue Monday can be a tough reminder that some days feel heavier than others.
At Austins Funeral Directors, we know that grief, worry, and feeling overwhelmed don’t follow the calendar — and we care all year round.

If you’re finding things hard to cope with, please know you don’t have to face it alone. There are kind, confidential listening services available, such as friends and family, your GP, or organisations like Samaritans who are there 24/7.

Be gentle with yourself. Support is always within reach. 💙

Few moments are as meaningful and emotionally complex as saying goodbye to a loved one who has died. That’s why the changes we’re seeing across the UK funeral industry in 2026 are so important to our communities across Herts and to the Austin’s team supporting them.

Recent findings from the SunLife Cost of Dying Report 2026 highlight a clear shift away from traditional, formal funerals toward services that are more personal, flexible and modern.

Here’s what’s changing in funeral arranging in the UK, influencing choices in 2026. Update from Austin’s family funeral directors, based a cross Herts.

Honouring Loved Ones: The Burial of Our Christmas Memory Hearts

During December, families were invited to place memory hearts on the Christmas trees at Austin’s Stevenage and Harwood Park Crematorium, each one lovingly dedicated to a much missed loved one. On Wednesday 14th January – a beautiful sunny Winter’s morning - these hearts were buried with love and respect in the peaceful grounds of Harwood Park by the Harwood Park and Austin’s team of David Hall and Amanda McArthur, bringing a gentle and dignified close to this special act of remembrance.
