The tradition of announcing the passing of loved ones in local news media remains an important way for communities to come together in remembrance. We are honoured to be entrusted with sharing such significant announcements, providing a platform for families and friends to celebrate the lives of those they have lost.
Every funeral notice published in our newspaper and online also appears on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading site for death notices and memorials. These tributes remain accessible indefinitely, offering a lasting online memorial where memories can be shared, photographs displayed, and donations made in honour of the departed.
Each week, we pay our respects through a selection of funeral notices and accompanying tribute pages from across Somerset. Whether you wish to read the latest announcements, leave a tribute, or create a notice for a loved one, assistance is readily available—simply visit funeral-notices.co.uk or contact our dedicated team at 01482 908084.
