💙 If you receive certain benefits and meet the eligibility criteria, you may be entitled to financial help towards funeral expenses.

🤍 Our caring team is here to listen, offer guidance and help you understand what support may be available.

Please don’t be afraid to ask for help. You don’t have to face everything alone.

💙 October is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month 💙

At L&G Family Funeral Directors, we know that every loss matters, no matter how early or how long you had with your baby.

Miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal loss, ectopic pregnancy or any other type of pregnancy or infant loss — behind every loss is a family, and a love that never goes away. 🩵

Today, and throughout October, we remember the babies, honour their lives and hold their families in our hearts.

🕊️ Your baby mattered. Your loss matters. Your love matters. 💙

A beautiful floral tribute for Joe’s funeral on Friday by the hugely talented Joannes Flowers 🪻🪷🌹

The coffin spray was made even more personal by incorporating Joe’s own fishing rod into the arrangement, which was such a lovely touch and a perfect reflection of something he loved.🎣

Unfortunately, the fishing rod had already been carefully removed and returned to the family before I managed to take this photo, but the flowers still looked absolutely stunning…

It takes some talent to make a fish from flowers 🐟

Personal touches like these make such a difference and help make every funeral completely unique to the person we’re saying goodbye to ❤️
