The weight of grief.

Carrying the coffin of someone you love.

They are your person, and if you want to do this, then you can.

Bearing the weight of your person in their coffin can help to imprint the reality of their death as you begin to navigate life without them.

Funerals can be powerfully transformative.

Funerals matter 🤍

Hattersley came to a standstill today as we said goodbye to a much-loved young man.
His love of horses was beautifully reflected in the use of a horse-drawn hearse, leading him with grace on his final journey through the streets he knew so well.
A fitting tribute to someone who meant so much to so many 🤍

Our boys on the Remembrance Parade with 5th Hyde Scouts today in Hyde



Remembrance Day, originally known as Armistice Day, marks the end of World War 1. This day has evolved to honor all military personnel who have died in the line of duty. The tradition of wearing poppies and observing a two-minute silence began in 1919 and has become a powerful symbol of collective mourning and gratitude.
