Testimonials

Our business has been built on a repuation of trust, dignity, professionalism. We take exceptional care of each and every family we work for and this is reflected in the kind words we receive from them. Please click the link below to view some of the letters we have received.
I wanted to say how absolutely wonderful you were at organising my mum's funeral on July 2nd. We could not have gone through it all without your calm, professional and experienced support. You were amazing leading up to the day as well as at the church and crematorium. You do such a wonderful job at a time when people are preoccupied with grief and unable to think straight. Thank you so very very much.
Thank you for all the help you gave to the family at the time of their bereavement and especially on the day of her funeral. When someone dies peacefully and painlessly at the age of 97 it is not really a sad occasion, but a time to celebrate a long life well lived. Nevertheless it is a confusing and uncertain time, especially with current restrictions. So to have you guide us through all of the necessary bureaucracy and to do it with compassion and professionalism was well appreciated by all the family. We shared the flowers and it has given us a lovely taste of spring in the house, and helped to bring back lots of memories of my mother's beautiful garden.
I am writing to thank you and your team very much for arranging my Aunt's funeral last week. It is daunting when you have never had to make arrangements like this before, but you personally made it very straightforward and easy for me. The family were very pleased with the service and the way it was managed and I am very grateful to you all. I felt that it was a celebration of her life and a lovely send off for her after a long and full life. Despite the pandemic it all went smoothly without any hitches.

Shakespeare Week – Words of Comfort & Reflection 📖🎭

Timeless words of the Bard, whose works continue to bring comfort, wisdom and reflection in times of loss.

"Give sorrow words: the grief that does not speak
Whispers the o'erfraught heart and bids it break."

Grief is a journey, and speaking about our sorrow can help to lighten its weight. Whether through conversation, writing, or quiet reflection, finding a way to express loss can bring comfort and healing.

March Birth Flowers 💐 Daffodil & Jonquil

Daffodil ~ is a bright and cheerful symbol of new beginnings, hope and happiness. As one of the first flowers to bloom in spring, it reminds us that warmth and light always follow even the coldest winters.

Jonquil ~ a variety of Daffodil, carries similar meanings but also represents affection and a desire for love to be returned. In Victorian times, giving Jonquil was a way of saying "I long for you." Their sweet fragrance and delicate petals make them a beautiful and meaningful bloom for March Birthdays.

Also in our window display this month we are proud to feature @swallow_charity , an incredible organization supporting teenagers and young adults with disabilities. Their work makes a real difference in our local community.

If you are passing by, take a moment to admire our display and learn more about the wonderful work of Swallow Charity. ... See MoreSee Less
