What Our Clients Say About Us
For The Communities We Serve
We are more than just a Family Funeral Directors. We are local people who always strive to give back and support local people, businesses and good causes. Here are some of the ways we have given back to our local communities over the years.
PROM HIRE
We hire out our Pilato Mercedes Limousines for proms completely free of charge in exchange for a donation to a chosen charity.
In 2023 we raised over £2,600.00! This year all proceeds will be going to KEMP Hospice.
Previous beneficiaries include:
Birmingham Children's Hospital and Charity
Stourbridge and District RSPCA
CHRISTMAS TOY APPEAL
We appealed for donations of new, unused, unwrapped presents that were handed out by Santa to the Children spending Christmas in Worcester Royal Hospital - The Riverbank Ward. We assisted local parents Mandy Griffiths, Adele Green, Becky Mason, Tony Perks and Aly Lench on their mission to bring a smile to kids in need.
DEFIBRILLATOR DONATION
In May 2022 we purchased and donated a defibrillator for Wollaston Village in Stourbridge to provide life saving equipment to the local community. This kind of equipment is so important and can make all the difference in a time of need, less than two weeks after it was installed, it was used. Proving how vital this equipment really is.
EASTER EGG APPEAL
We helped the Why Not Inn and The Black Country Food Bank at Cradley Community Centre to help make sure no child in the Black Country was without an Easter Egg in 2023. We personally donated 50 eggs and local businesses and families helped with the appeal to deliver even more eggs. A young man, Corey from Blackheath Primary School even donated 10 of his own eggs to help a good cause.
SELECTION BOX DONATION
In 2017, Bereavement Charity Edward's Trust appealed for 200 selection boxes to give to the children they support who may find Christmas difficult, due to the devastating loss of a parent. We proudly delivered 150 selection boxes helping them smash their target and they received a total of 600 selection boxes!
ANNUAL REMEMBRANCE SERVICE
Each December since 2013, we have held a FREE Remembrance Service where we invite families past and present to join together in a time of reflection. We share some beautiful readings, sing some carols, everyone is invited to light a candle, and provide refreshments after the service.
