As the year draws to a close, it’s common to think of the people who are special to us – especially those we've lost. That’s why we’ve chosen to take part in Light a Candle.

From 15 to 21 December we’ll be posting digital candles in memory of those who can’t be with us during the festive season. If you’d like to create a virtual candle, please click the following link where you can choose a design and write a short message to a loved one.

There's no cost for you or your family to get involved and create an online memorial.
We’ll share your candles on our page.

We’re pleased to announce the return of Light a Candle this Christmas!

Taking part in this Christmas’s Light a Candle gives you the opportunity to create online memorials throughout the festive period.

Christmas is a special time to celebrate with family and friends, and our virtual candles are a thoughtful way to pay tribute to loved ones who are no longer with us.

We'll be sharing virtual candles on our page between 15 and 21 December. There's no cost for you or your family to get involved and create an online memorial.
We look forward to sharing your memorials from 15 December.

🍂Get the send off you want, with a plan tailored for you 🍂

One of the best things about the Golden Charter funeral plans we offer is that you can choose the send-off you want. We can help you arrange a plan that suits you perfectly.

Deciding on the main details now is a thoughtful way to save your family from uncertainty later on.

When the time comes, your funeral wishes will be taken care of locally by us. It means you and your loved ones can be certain of a truly personal service when it matters most.

Trusted. Personal. Local.

A symbol families can trust

When families see the Golden Charter seal, they know they’re in safe hands.

We’re proud to display the Golden Charter seal as it stands for quality and trust in our profession.

It shows families that we’re independently owned but recognised nationally - committed to providing the same level of care, respect, and professionalism every time.

We’re proud to stand behind this mark of excellence.

🌟 A Huge Congratulations to Kev! 🌟

We’re incredibly proud to share that Kev has officially passed his Diploma in Funeral Directing with the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) — a truly outstanding achievement.

Kev is such an integral part of our team and has been with us for over 8 years, helping us grow and support our community with care and compassion. The feedback we receive from families about Kev is always so positive and complimentary — a true reflection of his professionalism, kindness, and dedication.

We’re so proud of everything he has achieved and grateful to have him as part of our team. Well done, Kev — this is so well deserved! 👏💐

On Saturday we had the absolute honour of being invited along to attend the 63rd Ugandan Independence Day Celebrations in Sheffield. It was a day of joy, culture and community spirit, and for us, it was also a day of learning. In attendance were some very distinguished guests who we had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with. 🖤💛❤️

We are so proud of our team today, along with everyone else who played a part in making today a truly special farewell.
A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful celebrant, Elle, to Alison and all the staff at Mosborough Hall Hotel, Karen Bassett Carriage Masters for the stunning horses, Gabelle & Ista, Phantom Car Hire for the elegant limousines, South Yorkshire Police and Sheffield City Council for the road closures, — and most importantly, to the wider community, who stood shoulder to shoulder with Elemie’s family.

Your presence, support, and unity today were deeply moving.

Elemie and her family remain in our hearts as they continue to navigate this incredibly painful time.

Rest in peace, Elemie Rose 🌹💕
