Announcing the passing of loved ones through local news media is a cherished tradition, and we take pride in the trust placed in us to share these important announcements. Every notice published in our newspaper and on our news website also appears on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading site for death notices and memorials. Each notice remains online indefinitely, offering families and friends a lasting tribute, a secure place to share memories, add tributes and photographs, and facilitate donations in memory of the deceased.
Each week, we honour the individuals remembered within our community by publishing their funeral notices and online tribute pages. To view the latest announcements, leave tributes for those who have passed, or to arrange a funeral notice yourself, please visit the website or call our friendly team at 01482 908084.
