Rolling into Spring. 🌿✨

Thanks to the team at Armidale Mower & Chainsaw Centre for delivering our newest addition to the outdoor team. With a warm Spring ahead, whilst our team thinks up a name for our newest ride-on, they can't wait to get stuck into testing the new mower on our stunning lawns and around our memorial gardens.

We continue to pride ourselves on the effort of our Outdoor team at Piddingtons. Keeping the gardens and memorial spaces at our Fairleigh Rest home looking their very best through every season. A peaceful, welcoming place for families to reflect and remember. 💚

With our gardens open every weekend for families, and our inaugural open day approaching on November 8th.
We look forward to welcoming you whilst you explore Fairleigh Park and some new additions.

Good Food and Great Company. 🌭🧅

Food has a way of bringing people together.

That’s why we’re putting on a complimentary BBQ lunch at our Open Day, because sometimes the best conversations happen over a sausage sizzle (thanks Bunnings).

Whether you're a tomato or BBQ sauce person, a with or without onion person, we're excited to welcome you for a day of tours, talks and touching on those subjects...

For over 120 years, Piddingtons has proudly served Armidale and the surrounding area. Our Open Day is a chance to learn, connect, and share in the care that guides everything we do.

Crafting Memories That Last. 💐🪦

When you see a headstone or memorial, you see a name, a date, and perhaps a few words. What you don’t always see is the artistry, patience, and craft behind it.

During the Open Day, our stonemasons will demonstrate how memorials are created, transforming raw stone into something that will outlast generations. It’s part tradition, part craftsmanship, and wholly about remembering.

A New Chapter for the Australian Funeral Directors Association, as Funerals Australia 🌱

As many in our community will know, Piddingtons has been a proud member of the Australian Funeral Directors Association (AFDA) since 1937. Now, in its 90th year of being the voice of funeral professionals, the AFDA has announced it will be rebranding itself as Funerals Australia.

Whilst their name has changed. Their commitment to making funeral care easier to understand, more approachable, and, most importantly, their focus on what really matters, supporting Australian families through some of life’s most difficult moments.

Since 1937, Piddingtons has proudly been a member of the Australian Funeral Directors Association, and now, with Funerals Australia, we will continue to ensure that local families receive the highest quality care.

A Lasting Legacy. 🤝🌱

Last Saturday, part of our team was invited to the dedication of the Inverell RSL Sub-Branch Modern Conflicts Memorial, a project that holds special meaning for us.

Playing a part in bringing this memorial to life was a privilege for Piddingtons. We constructed a place for our community to gather, remember, and reflect on the courage and sacrifice of those who served in Australia's modern conflicts.

The ceremony moved us deeply, making the official dedication of the memorial a proud moment for our team.

Lest We Forget.

Step Behind the Scenes. 📸

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes at a funeral home?
Or why do our gardens look so peaceful all year round?
At our Open Day, we’ll take you on guided tours through our spaces, the same ones that quietly hold some of life’s biggest moments.

It’s a chance to ask questions, explore at your own pace, and see how much care goes into every detail.
