Every notice published in our newspaper and on our news website is also featured on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials.
Each notice remains online indefinitely, offering families and friends a permanent tribute—a safe and respectful space to share memories, post tributes, upload photographs, and make charitable donations in honor of their loved ones.
Every week, we pay homage to those remembered in our community through published funeral notices and online tribute pages. To view the most recent announcements, contribute a tribute, or create a funeral notice, please visit our website or contact our compassionate team at 01482 908084.
