When nature puts on a show like this, all you have to do is look up.

This stunning shot — captured by Kate Spencer from Central Co‑op — perfectly frames the calm of the water, the glow of the sky, and the peaceful architecture settling into the evening light.

🌿 So Much More Choice Than People Realise 🌿

Many people don’t realise just how much choice they have when planning a cremation service. A farewell can be as unique as the life it celebrates. From meaningful music and carefully chosen readings…

To symbolic gestures, personal items, favourite colours, or even quiet moments of reflection…

There are so many ways to honour a loved one in a way that feels true, comforting, and authentic.

Every family deserves to understand their options — because guidance and support empowers, and the right guidance can transform a difficult moment into something beautifully personal.

We’re always here to help, with clarity, compassion, and the reassurance that your choices truly matter. ❤️

In this short video, we’ll guide you through what to expect when attending an appointment with Caroline. When discussing memorial options Caroline is here to provide clear guidance, compassion, and professionalism every step of the way.

Let’s walk you through the process a little so you feel prepared and reassured on your journey.

🌿 Appreciation for Derby’s Funeral Director Community 🌿

So much of good bereavement care happens long before a family ever walks through our door. It’s in the quiet preparation, the careful checks, the safeguarding, and the unwavering commitment to doing things properly every single time.

In Derby and the surrounding area's, we are fortunate to have a funeral community that embodies this standard every day. From George Simnett, Wathall's, Marc Stephens, Central England Funeral Care, Fellows, Kinton and Daughters, AW Lymn, Ginns & Gutteridge—and the many other dedicated local Funeral Directors—your work makes a profound difference.

Dignity isn’t an add‑on in this profession.

It’s not a feature, or a special touch.

It’s built into the way you work, ingrained in every quiet act of respect behind the scenes.

Thank you to all who care for bereaved families in our community with such professionalism, compassion, and integrity. Your efforts matter—every single day.

🌿 Memorials as Unique as the Lives They Honour 🌿

Memorials are deeply personal. They come in all shapes, sizes, styles, and materials — because every life is different, and every family deserves a way to remember that feels truly their own.

Whether it's a simple and elegant marker, a bespoke memorial garden space, or a beautifully crafted tribute with meaningful details… each one is created around individual choices, reflecting the personality, story, and legacy of the person it honours.

✨ Until the end of January, we’re contributing 10% towards the cost of all memorial garden spaces and memorials.

It’s our way of helping families create something lasting, beautiful, and uniquely meaningful during a difficult time.

If you’d like to explore options or start a conversation about what feels right for you or your family, we’re here with guidance, compassion, and complete flexibility.

❤️ Your memories matter — and so should your memorial. Call 01332 321064 to book an appointment with Caroline or a member of the team.

FAQ Friday: My Journey

This week’s FAQ Friday is a little different.

A few years ago, I was asked to take part in an interview for the company about my journey into a career in funerals, crematoria in particular.

I often get asked how I ended up working in this industry, so I wanted to share this video with you. I worked for 23 years in Hospitality and I took the leap into this industry almost 8 years ago. This is the most rewarding job I have ever done and as I stated in the video - I have never looked back.

I hope this helps answer some of those questions and gives you a better understanding of what led me here.
