The next post of our behind the scenes at Sankey & Monks is our chapels of rest ♥️

🤍 A place of peace, love and remembrance

We know that when someone you love passes away, one of the hardest things to think about is where they will be and who will be caring for them.

Our Chapel of Rest is a quiet, peaceful and private place where your loved one can rest with dignity and respect, while giving you the opportunity to spend those precious final moments together.

For some families, it may be sitting quietly beside their loved one. For others, it may be holding their hand, sharing stories, saying the things they didn’t get the chance to say, or simply being together one last time.
Every family is different, and there is no right or wrong way to say goodbye. We are here to provide a warm, comforting space where you can take your time and remember the person you love.

We wanted to share this video to give you a little insight into our Chapel of Rest, so that if the time ever comes when you need us, you can have some reassurance knowing where your loved one will rest and the surroundings in which you can visit them.
Caring for your loved one is a privilege we never take for granted. We treat every person in our care with kindness, dignity and the utmost respect — just as we would want for our own family. 🕊️

Because saying goodbye is never easy, but you should never have to face it alone. 🤍

Arranging the funeral service 🕊

Funeral arrangements can be a difficult and emotional time, and it can sometimes feel overwhelming trying to think of and organise all the finer details.

To help make things a little easier, we have put together a simple guide that we send out to families before they come to see us. It helps you prepare for some of the questions we’ll ask and gives you the opportunity to think about the arrangements in your own time.

We do whatever we can to make the process as easy and straightforward as possible during such a difficult time, offering support and guidance every step of the way. ❤️

Colourful tributes for a much loved young man.
