We’re incredibly proud of our Business Leader, Luke Crouch, who recently organised a Race Night with the Rotary Club of Hertford, raising over £840 for charitable causes. 👏

Luke’s dedication to supporting the community shines through not only in his professional work, but also in his commitment to giving back. This successful evening was filled with fun, teamwork, and generosity, a true reflection of his leadership and passion for making a difference. It was also lovely to see many of the Powells Funeral Directors team attend the event for an evening of fun!

Well done Luke – a fantastic achievement for a great cause! 🌟
