Today we honour and remember all mothers — those who are with us and those who are missed dearly. 💗💐

If today feels heavy for you, please know you are not alone. Grief doesn’t follow a calendar, and it’s okay if today is difficult. Take a moment to be gentle with yourself and remember that support is always there.

As a funeral director, we see every day how powerful love and memories are. If you are struggling today, please reach out to someone you trust — a friend, family member, or a professional who can listen.

From everyone at Francis Chappell & Sons we are thinking of everyone today, whatever Mother’s Day means for you. 💛

Thank you so much Woolwich Polytechnic School for Girls for inviting us to be part of this International Women’s Day event. Our funeral director Siobhan had a lovely time chatting to the students explaining a little bit about life as a female Funeral Director 😊

Celebrating Incredible Women at Woolwich Polytechnic School for Girls

On Friday 6th March, we were honoured to welcome over 30 inspiring women into WPSfG as part of our International Women’s Day celebrations. These amazing role models generously gave up their time to share their journeys, challenges, and successes with our students.

Our Year 7s took part in a Famous Careers Carousel, meeting professionals from a wide range of industries and discovering exciting possibilities for their futures.

A huge thank you to every woman who joined us - your stories, strength, and passion left our girls feeling empowered and full of ambition.
