🎗️ As the year draws to a close, we extend our sincere thanks to everyone who donated in memory of a loved one through our online tribute facility. In 2025 alone, your generosity raised £141,316 for charitable causes, £11,376 more than the previous year, bringing the total raised since launching the platform in 2021 to over £561,000.

Among the many causes supported, nearly 400 donations were made to St Barnabas Hospice Lincolnshire, raising almost £20,000. Other significant contributions included £11,310 to the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance, £9,132 to the British Heart Foundation, £9,049 to Cancer Research UK, and £7,047 to Marie Curie, alongside many other local, regional and national charities. Every donation was made in memory of someone special and chosen with care by their family.

Provided in partnership with MuchLoved, our online facility offers a thoughtful space where family and friends can share messages, light virtual candles, leave tributes, and make donations in memory of someone special. It’s a simple yet powerful way to honour loved ones while supporting the causes that meant most to them. To everyone who contributed this year, thank you for your trust and generosity. We wish you a peaceful and healthy New Year, our family caring for yours. 🤍

🕯️ A heartfelt thank you to all those who joined us for our annual memorial services at the start of December. Marking our fourth annual event and our highest attendance to date, we were delighted to welcome the Salvation Army brass band for a second year, whose festive songs greeted guests on arrival. Members of our memorials team were warmly welcomed and proud to attend, as our beacon of light once again lit the way for visitors.

For those who couldn't attend, or did attend but would like to watch again, live webcasts from both services are now available to view online. These streams will be active throughout the festive period and into the New Year, with digital copies available to order on request, details below. Our family, caring for yours, remember that we are always here, whenever you need us.

🕊️ In this season of peace and light, we invite you to our funeral homes to dedicate a special tribute to someone you love, but very sadly no longer see. Our memorial trees are now placed at Gainsborough and Saxilby, displaying the tags from last week’s memorial services. You are welcome to visit at any time before Christmas to write a message on one of our stars, place upon our tree, and take a moment to reflect, either with a member of our team, alone, or with family and friends. For those unable to visit, we will be happy to place a tag on your behalf. You are also welcome to use our online dedication facility, where you can upload a photo, leave a message and light up a life. Our family caring for yours, remember that we are always here, whenever you need us. 🤍

Statement

We would like to offer our sincere apologies as a small number of the photos submitted prior to the cut off for the memorial service tribute were not included.
We fully appreciate how meaningful these images are and are deeply sorry that this occurred.

Our team is already working to correct the issue, and the “watch again” version of the tribute will include the photos that were missing. This technical problem will also affect the service taking place tomorrow (Saturday), but we can reassure you that the tribute on the “watch again” version will be complete and fully reflective of everything submitted prior to the cut off.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we make this right.
