On Friday we welcomed a new resident to the Tarn Moor family.

Professor Wynne Harlen OBE, a towering figure in science education whose work transformed how children around the world learn, understand and enjoy science 🔬🧪🔭

Her family and friends came to attend a beautiful graveside service with a local celebrant from Harrogate.

There were some gorgeous hand tied bouquets of flowers 💐 passed around for everyone to pay their individual respects and remembering the good times with plenty of memories shared ❤️

Special thanks to Full Circle Funerals for bringing Wynne on her final journey in their 100% electric black Eco-Hearse as well as their Nissan Leaf vehicle which can be used in the place of a traditional “limousine” to transport friends and family to and from the service.

Huge thanks to Team Blades for their superb grave preparation.

Liam 🩵💙💔

We welcomed the ashes of this young man yesterday afternoon.

They chose a beautiful banana leaf casket to tuck him into his forever home.

This natural woven ashes casket is the perfect option for laying a loved ones ashes to rest in the ground, or keeping safe in the home, as they are 100% biodegradable and environmentally friendly. Each casket comes with an internal cotton liner and a biodegradable bag to hold the ashes, to keep them safe and secure. A jute presentation bag is also included, to protect the casket and make it easier to carry.

Liam's family chose to plant a Rowan Tree 🌳 alongside their special loved one ❤️

May he now rest in peace.

Many thanks to this family for allowing us to share his photo with you all 💙

It looks like the rain is here to stay 😕

Rain can often be a symbol of grief.

🌧Shared sorrow: Rain can feel like the world is crying with you, making you feel less alone in your sadness.

🌧Cleansing: Like tears washing the face, rain can symbolize washing away pain and offering a fresh start after a storm of grief.

🌧Memory and loss: The sound of rain can evoke memories and intensify feelings of loss, connecting to the pain of what's gone.

🌧Cultural meaning: Rain at a funeral can signify cleansing, renewal, or a natural release, offering comfort.

Happy National Hugging Day! 🤗

I think we all agree that sometimes all we need is a big fat squeeze to make us feel right again. ❤️ This is of course may be difficult as the ones we really want to hug are no longer with us 💔

Grieving people often respond positively to physical comfort, such as hugs, as it can provide emotional support and a sense of connection during a difficult time. Hugs can help release oxytocin, which may reduce feelings of stress and loneliness.

Atound this time 6 years ago, we weren't able to hug our loved ones so today, hold them tight, hold them long, enjoy every second, and smile☺️

Here's our little friend 🧡 singing a little song🥰
Sorry it's a bit blurry! 🙃

Today is 'Blue Monday.'
Post-Christmas sadness and general winter dreariness play into the idea of it 😔
The third Monday of January, which falls today, January 19th, is said to be the saddest day of the year.

We want to try and help boost your mood today and every day, even for just a moment, or an hour or two 😊 not sure if the sunshine will appear though today 🙃

💚 It is okay to smile when you are grieving.
💚It is okay to have happy times.
💚 It is okay to remember those we love with a smile 😊

We are here for you ❤

It's really not a bad place to work is it? Just look at our stunning and beautiful 'office' ❤️

And it's not only our workplace, but it's a home, a forever home for your very special loved ones ❤️ 🩵💔❤️‍🩹

The true sentiment behind natural burial is often about the return to nature and the idea that our physical bodies can become a gift to the trees, flowers, and wildlife, thus continuing the cycle of life. Many people are drawn to this as a way of leaving a natural legacy and making a final commitment to caring for the planet, reflecting values that guided their lives.
How wonderful 😊

How lovely to be greeted by beautiful bird song just now 🎵 🎶 🐦 🐦‍⬛
(Trying to ignore the traffic noise!) 🙃🥰

Apologies for the darkness of the video!

It's another beautiful morning as we are here to meet a new family 🌳

𝗙𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗟𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥 😊

It's a beautiful morning as we are on site, meeting with families.

It's nearly mid January, but we're just wanting to let you know that we will begin to clear away all the Christmas wreaths, flowers, plants and any memorabilia towards the end of this month.

If you wish to keep anything that you have left with a loved one on a grave, then please come and collect it prior to this date. We do tend to keep things in the office if they look sentimental, so don't worry, we won't throw them away.

You are of course welcome to come and remove items from plots yourselves.

🌳Please note that only fresh cut flowers are permitted on graves throughout the whole of the year.
We reserve the right to remove anything that is not allowed 🚫 if we deem it not acceptable for our natural field.

Just another reminder that you can dispose of fresh flowers ONLY on the compost pile round in the car park area at the back of the office.
Please do not put any other rubbish on this pile, which includes dog 💩 and we ask that you take all other rubbish home with you.
Please also remember to remove all plastic wrapping on flowers when leaving them on a grave.

Thank you 😊

On Saturday we were here to help a family lay their beloved guinea pigs 🐹 to rest.
'Rosie' and 'Hazel' were buried alongside their 6 other pals who have been interred with us over the last few years 😔

Guinea pigs have even been known to die from grief.
Your guinea pig may grieve after the loss of a companion. He or she may become depressed and this can lead to illness. This will most likely be felt more strongly if your guinea pig was one of a pair or a small group.

Do speak with us for more information regarding pet burials 🐾 🐕 🐈

A beautiful consolation on the day was the glorious weather ❤️
