We are thrilled to share that, thanks to the generosity of our community, we have collected 650 books to be donated to County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust. These books will help replenish the hospital library, offering patients a comforting escape and entertainment during their stay.
From children's stories to adult fiction, non-fiction, and puzzle books — every single donation will make a difference. Thank you to everyone who contributed and helped spread the word. Your kindness and support mean the world to us and to those who will benefit from these books.
As the books are being collected this Monday, we’re now pausing donations for the time being. But please keep an eye out — we’ll soon be supporting other great causes, and we’d love your help again!
Thank you for your continued kindness and generosity

Did you catch our Funeralcare colleague Edward on ITV Tonight last week? 👀📺

In the episode on sorting your affairs, Edward from Pontefract Funeralcare shared his experience of taking out a funeral plan at just 20 years old. You can watch it back here (Edward appears from 18 mins in!) ➡️ https://www.itv.com/watch/tonight/1a2803/1a2803a9481.

Getting our affairs in order can be a daunting task - Paul Brand investigates some of the important things to sort and finds out what can happen when we don't.

Rest in peace Betty, this one’s for you 💙

We hope you love your remembrance pebble as much as we do! If anyone else would like to share a memory of a loved one, please do comment below and we may be able to create a remembrance pebble specially for you.

David
I just wanted to express my thanks along with our family for the professional support we received from yourself and all at the funeral care service following the recent death of my father. Please express out thanks to all who were of support, including Jessica and Susan and those unknown to us. You have all made a difficult time more bearable.
Kindest Regards

We’re sorry our artist won’t be able to paint all of your submissions but please share anyway, we love hearing all your stories!
