Announcing the passing of a loved one through local news media is a cherished tradition, and we are honoured by the trust placed in us to share these important announcements. Every funeral notice published in our newspaper and on our website is also featured on funeral-notices.co.uk — the UK’s leading site for death notices and memorials. These notices remain online indefinitely, providing a lifelong tribute to loved ones and a safe space for friends and family to share memories, post tributes, add photographs, and offer donations in their honour.
Each week, we pay heartfelt tribute to those remembered in our community with their funeral notices and dedicated online memorial pages. To view the latest announcements, leave your condolences, or create a funeral notice yourself, please visit our website or contact our friendly team at 01482 908084.
