We’re pleased to support Kay Croft Celebrant, who is running the Blackpool Marathon this April to raise money for two very important charities.

Kay is fundraising for The Christie Charity and the Child Funeral Charity - both of which provide vital support to families during incredibly difficult times.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how small, it would be greatly appreciated 💛

Today we had the honour of carrying out the funeral service for the late Shirley “Shirl” at Carmountside Crematorium.

It was truly touching to see so many people in attendance, and we’re sure the family felt a great sense of comfort from the support shown.

As a proud Stokie girl, Shirl made one final journey around Stoke by special request — a meaningful tribute to the place she called home.

A beautiful service was officiated by Kay Croft, with stunning floral arrangements provided by our florist Donna.

Shirl, may you rest in eternal peace 💜🕊️❤️
