Continuing with Meeting our lovely team here at Burnham Funeral Services.

Introducing Hollie Jones.

Hollie has been with us since 2024 and played a key part in revamping the branch, giving it a fresh warm welcoming look.
Hollie usually likes to have loud hair colours and has found it challenging to find a more tamer colour she loves. You may have seen her with her Auburn hair like in this picture, she has had blonde hair and now she has dark red hair. :D

Working with us here for over a year now, here is a little more about Hollie in her own words,

"I’ve worked within the care sector, pharmaceutical and people focused jobs my whole career so. I know how important the end-of-life journey is since supporting the elderly and their families whilst working in care. I pride myself in making sure dignity, comfort and care is given to those I look after and would treat everyone as if they’re my own family.

In my free time I love to be a Mum, days out with my partner and seeing family who are also based in the area and close by. We have a little pug who loves Burnham beach so find myself there a lot."

All thats missing is the hot chocolate! 🤭

Grand Opening – Pinks Funeral Directors, Caterham

On 1st August, we proudly celebrated the grand opening of our new Pinks Funeral Directors branch in Caterham. While the location is new, Pinks has a long-standing legacy of compassionate care, and we’re thrilled to extend that tradition into the Caterham community.

The event was a fantastic success, thanks to the dedication of Karen, our Area Development Manager, and the brilliant team at Pinks who worked tirelessly to prepare the branch and welcome guests.

We were honoured to be joined by The Hon. Councillor Mike Crane, Chairman of Tandridge District Council, whose presence added a special touch to the occasion.

A highlight of the day was Caterham Town Crier and valued team member Sonia, who brought tradition and ceremony to life with her official duties—making the celebration truly memorable.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in marking this exciting new chapter for Pinks in Caterham.

This month we’re exploring the topic of coping with grief. Check in each week for helpful advice and guidance.

Grief is a unique journey for everyone; there's no set timeline.

It can bring overwhelming emotions like anger, guilt, and deep sadness, and even manifest as physical symptoms.

All of these reactions are normal. Don’t be afraid to seek support from loved ones or professionals.

Don’t miss a beat on World Heart Day.

One in five people will die early from cardiovascular disease (CVD), which claims more lives than cancer and chronic respiratory diseases combined.

James Brown & Sons Supporting “Saddle Up” Holiday Bible Club

Last month, our Newtownabbey branch had the joy of supporting the “Saddle Up” Holiday Bible Club, made possible through the James Brown & Sons Community Fund.

Led by our fantastic team member Claire, the initiative brought together children and families for a week of western-themed fun, crafts, games, and storytelling—all hosted by the local church. The energy was infectious, and it was clear how much the event meant to everyone involved.

We were proud to play a small part in making the week a success. Claire spent time at the club during the week, joined the family BBQ on Saturday, and attended the Sunday Church service—strengthening the bond between our team and the local community.

A huge thank you to Claire for championing this initiative. It’s moments like these that remind us how powerful community connections can be.

Good Morning. This week we are going to be introducing our Team here at Burnham Funeral Services.

Starting off with our New Funeral Director
Steph Murphy

Steph has been with Funeral Partners since 2019 and has worked her way up from a causal Funeral Service Operative.
Steph says, "Though the Funeral industry wasn't something I saw myself being part of, I am glad I took the leap of faith, for I feel I have found my calling.
I love everything about it. I love everything from bringing our customers into our care and preparing them for visits in our chapel of rest, to supporting our families making those difficult decisions during arrangements.
Seeing the release of relief from our clients shoulders, when we take the pressure off them and seeing them smile again when they didn't think they could, gives me so much job satisfaction.
I live by, "No question is a silly question" and I pass that on to all our families. "

Our door is always open and we are always happy to answer any of questions and support you in your time of need."

GE Hartley & Son Take on Malham Cove – and a Bull – for Charity!

The incredible team from GE Hartley & Son Funeral Directors recently tackled a challenging charity walk through the breath taking Malham Cove in the Yorkshire Dales.

What was meant to be a 13-mile trek turned into a 15-mile adventure—thanks to an unexpected detour caused by a runaway bull! From rock climbing to rugged terrain, the team powered through with laughter, resilience, and plenty of Yorkshire grit.

Together, they raised an amazing £1,385 for the Alzheimer's Society. A huge well done to everyone involved—your determination and good humour turned a wild walk into a wonderful memory.

A Fond Farewell to a True Country Gentleman

G&M Goold Funeral Directors, were honoured to conduct a heartfelt farewell for a beloved local farm hand whose life was deeply rooted in the land—and in his love for tractors.

The service reflected his passion for the countryside, with thoughtful touches that celebrated his character and the life he lived. It was a privilege to support his family in saying goodbye.

A fitting tribute to a well-respected member of the local farming community.

September is Vascular Disease Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on the importance of prevention and early action.

Vascular disease often develops silently, so maintaining a healthy lifestyle early is key to prevention. Staying active through daily movement, choosing heart-smart foods, quitting smoking, and keeping an eye on your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar can make a profound difference.

This month, let’s commit to small changes that lead to stronger vessels and healthier lives. Share this message, encourage loved ones to get screened, and be part of a movement that prioritises prevention over crisis.
