Today we pause to remember mothers who are deeply missed and to hold close all those remembering someone they love this Mother’s Day.

This morning, challenging weather made an already difficult time even harder for many families. We would like to publicly thank our incredible staff, who worked tirelessly in the snow and freezing conditions to clear paths, prepare our premises, and ensure funerals could go ahead with dignity and care.

Their dedication, loyalty, and commitment meant families were able to say goodbye to their loved ones without disruption. We are deeply proud of our team and grateful for the compassion they show every day, no matter what the circumstances.

“Serving families with dignity, care and a committed team.”

Today, we light a candle in remembrance of those we no longer see, but who live on in our hearts and memories this Christmas.

We hope this poem, written for our Memorial Carol Services, brings you comfort and quiet reflection in the days ahead.

We felt incredibly honoured to welcome nearly 300 people to our Memorial Carol Services at Telford Crematorium this month. We truly hope that joining together as a community, at what can be such a difficult time for so many, brought comfort to all who attended in person or on-line.

A short video of the service held on 16th December can be viewed below, including extracts of the messages of comfort delivered by our celebrants and the blessing given to all those being remembered at this time of year by the Revd Prebendary Chris Thorpe.

We extend our sincere thanks to all who led or took part in the services and to everyone who attended. Your generous donations raised over £500 for the Lingen Davies Cancer Support and Dementia UK .
