Our lovely Taris supporting the Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal for the sixth year.

"I am proud to support the Royal British Legion and offering poppies every autumn means so much to me. Meeting members of the public, hearing their stories, and seeing their incredible generosity is deeply moving. The poppy is a powerful symbol of hope and sacrifice, and I’m glad to play a small part in ensuring our veterans, serving personnel and their families get the support they deserve." ~ Taris

Thank you Taris for your continued support.

This morning our funeral arrangers Sam and Ammie attended a breakfast morning at St Peter & St Paul Church in Felixstowe to discuss all things funerals and funeral plans.

Funerals aren't always easy to talk about which makes meetings like this important and helpful.

If you have any questions about funerals or plans, please don’t hesitate to get in touch, we are available 24/7.

Thank you to all who attended, Reverend Chris Hood for accommodating us and for the great conversations, company and some yummy food!

❓️What to wear to a funeral ❓️

If you have never attended a funeral before, deciding what to wear can be difficult. If you are unsure of what to wear, it’s important to be respectful to the person who has passed on. The family may set a specific dress code, or want you to wear a certain colour, so it’s always best to double check with them first.

Our team will always be in full attire, but at your request we can dress in clothes suited to your loved ones farewell. Whether that is traditional attire or something a little different. From jeans and t-shirts for a completely casual vibe to a specific coloured tie for a subtle nod to their favourite colour, we are always happy to personalise things for you and your loved one 🫶🏼
