Announcing the passing of loved ones through local news media is a deeply rooted tradition, and we are honored by the trust placed in us to share these meaningful messages. Every funeral notice published in our newspaper and on our website is also available on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials. These notices remain online indefinitely, providing families and friends with a lasting tribute—a secure space to share memories, add tributes, upload photographs, and make donations in honor of their loved ones.
Each week, we pay tribute to those remembered in our community by sharing funeral notices and online memorial pages. You can read the latest announcements, leave personal tributes, or publish a funeral notice yourself by visiting funeral-notices.co.uk or by calling our dedicated team at 01482 908084.
