Announcing the passing of a loved one through local media is a respected tradition, and we are honoured to be entrusted with these significant announcements. Every funeral notice published in our newspaper and on our website also appears on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials. These notices remain online indefinitely, providing a lasting tribute and a safe space for family and friends to share memories, add tributes, upload photographs, and make donations in remembrance.
Each week, we pause to remember the loved ones from our community through a selection of funeral notices and online tribute pages. To view the latest announcements, pay your respects, or create a funeral notice, please contact our dedicated team at 01482 908084.
Here are some of the notices published this week:
