Introducing Caring with Confidence

At Dignity Funerals, we believe that care doesn’t end with a goodbye - it begins with how we support those who care every day.

That’s why we’ve partnered with Hospice UK to launch Caring with Confidence: a CPD-accredited training programme designed to empower nursing home staff with the tools, insight and emotional resilience needed to support grieving families and residents, and for themselves.

Through free, locally delivered training sessions, we’re helping care professionals feel confident, informed and supported - because no one should feel alone after a death, especially those who care for others.

Sometimes, it’s the smallest gestures that hold the most meaning. Whether it’s lighting a candle, looking at photo's, playing a favourite song, or simply pausing for a quiet moment, these personal ways of remembering help keep our loved ones close.

We understand how important it is to honour those we’ve lost in ways that feel right to you. How do you choose to remember someone special? Please feel free to share your thoughts with us below.

⚠️ Beware of Funeral Streaming Scams ⚠️

Sadly, scammers are creating fake livestream links for funerals and memorials. These links may ask you to pay or enter personal details- this is a scam.

👉 If a service is being livestreamed, your Funeral Director will share the official link directly (usually on their website, by email, or through trusted channels).
👉 You will never be asked to pay to watch a livestream unless it has been clearly arranged in advance with the family or funeral home.
👉 Please ignore links shared in comments or private messages. They are almost always fraudulent.

We know how important it is to come together to remember a loved one. Please help us protect grieving families by staying vigilant. 💙

This week, we stand with families and communities across the UK to mark Baby Loss Awareness Week - a time to remember the precious lives lost too soon.

To every parent, relative, and friend carrying the weight of this grief, you are not alone.

On 15th October, we will join a global wave of remembrance by lighting a candle in honour of those babies lost.

This simple yet powerful gesture connects us - a shared moment to celebrate lives that touched ours, however briefly.

Let us pause together to cherish the memory of every baby who is deeply loved and never forgotten.
