Today is Holocaust Memorial Day, this year's theme is Bridging Generations. A call to action and reminder that the responsibility of remembrance doesn’t end with the survivors – it lives on through their children, their grandchildren and through all of us.
If it is safe to do so and you are able to, please light a candle at 8pm this evening and place it in your window. Together we will Light the Darkness. If you feel comfortable doing so, please post a picture of your candle.

Last week some members of our team enjoyed a night out at the Big Blue Quiz, hosted by Watford & West Herts Chamber of Commerce - W3RT at Metropolitan Bushey. We were delighted to sponsor the Family Fortunes Round too.
Our team finished 8th out of 22 teams on the night. A great team performance.
Money raised on the evening will go to support the Watford Community Fund. Well done to Gill Crowson and all her team for putting on a very enjoyable evening.

Established in 1983, M. K. Ginder and Sons are the only privately owned and family run firm of funeral directors in the Watford area. Over the years our commitment to the local community has built our reputation for personal service and attention to detail with regards to the care of the deceased.
For the convenience of the families we serve, our funeral arranging offices are situated in North Watford, Bricket Wood, Bushey, West Watford, South Oxhey and Abbots Langley.
We pride ourselves on the personal service we are able to give and in our ability to arrange funerals to suit every requirement and budget. Whether your wish is for a traditional funeral from a bygone era with glass hearse and plumed horses or a more modern and ‘of the moment’ funeral with an ecological coffin and woodland burial, we have the knowledge and experience to arrange any funeral ceremony.
As a local independent company, we try to be involved with the communities we serve and the charities we are able to support. We are delighted to be Business Partners with Peace Hospice Care, and to help numerous other charities both locally and nationally.
As a business we understand the importance to support other local business. Through our memberships of BNI and the Watford FC Business Partnership we are able to do that.
We are also able to assist people with pre-need funeral care by offering Pre-Paid Funeral Plans in connection with Golden Charter, and aftercare services through our monumental masons, Ginder Memorials.
