This year, M G Evans & Sons are excited to be offering something completely new.

We’ll be providing our limousine for students attending prom free of charge. There is no hire fee at all - instead, we’re simply asking that the family makes a donation to a local charity.

Every penny raised will go directly to a good cause in our community.

If you (or someone you know) are attending prom and would like to use this service while also supporting a local charity, please get in touch with us for more information - Matthew@mgevans.co.uk

As this is our first year doing this, availability will be limited and offered on a first come, first served basis.

Let’s make prom night special and support a great cause at the same time 💙

🌧️ STANDING WATER & FLOODING – TRAVEL CAUTION THIS MORNING 🌧️

After heavy overnight rain, a number of routes across the area now have significant standing water.

The A51 between Rugeley and Lichfield is flooded again on one side of the road. This is the same stretch that had temporary traffic lights last week — the lights were removed when the flooding subsided, but the water has returned this morning. Please approach with care.

Chris and Dawn report Five Ways to Skoda island in both directions is flooded so approach that with care.

James says that the Orbital is flooded and there’s an accident on that road too.

If you’re out and about and spot other flooded areas or places to avoid, let us know in the comments so we can keep everyone updated.
Stay safe on the roads today! 🚗

In my role I get to meet so many different people . I work with families to arrange beautiful services for loved ones, I attend networking sessions to be able to tell other people about what I do and why I’m so passionate about creating bespoke farewells.
This morning I am meeting with funeral directors in Birmingham Central Co-op Funeral to pass on some details regarding a funeral coming up that we have the privilege of creating and supporting the family.
No two families are the same no two goodbyes are the same no two services are the same but working together endures the personal unique farewell for each person .

People often ask why I chose to do what I do. Isn’t it depressing? Isn’t it terribly sad ?

This is my why …

This isn't a job I clock in and out of, It's a calling I carry with care.
I walk beside people in life's biggest moments, When words matter most, I'm there.
| listen for what sits quietly underneath, The stories you're aching to tell,
The love, the laughter, the loss and the joy-The moments that shape us so well.
I hold space when life feels fragile, And celebrate when hearts are full, From beginnings and endings and everything between,
Head with kindness, not rules.
Because helping and supporting isn't a service I offer,
It's the core of who I am.
I don't just write ceremonies—| honour lives, With honesty, warmth, and a steady hand.
So when you choose me, you're not choosing a script,
You're choosing presence, care, and time.
Someone who believes in this work and families forever in my mind ❤️

Old traditions and meanings are the best …..

Old traditions and meanings are the best …..

Through the eyes of a lych gate.

We recently captured and edited this image of our hearse parked outside a church, a rainy day framed by the shelter of its lych gate, a structure that has no doubt witnessed countless stories over the centuries.

Lych gates are traditionally found at the entrance to churchyards, designed to provide shelter for the coffin and pallbearers before a funeral service. Dating back to medieval times, the name comes from the Anglo Saxon word “lych”, meaning co**se.

Moments like this remind us that our profession is surrounded by deep history, tradition, and meaning.

Anyone who knows me will know that I love the old traditions ❤️

Today we remember all those lives that have been touched by this awful disease.
In my role I meet many families whose lives cancer has touched . Families grieving for lost loved ones.
Today you are all in my mind ❤️

This morning I will be creating a service for a family friend whose Mom passed away this month.
This afternoon I have an appointment with a lovely family who I have supported before after the loss of their loved one.
I am honoured to be asked again to support this family and help them to navigate this new journey of loss.
I’ve said before I am so lucky to be asked to support families at the most awful time in their life . I will never take this for granted and am totally humbled every time a family asks me to create a beautiful bespoke service for their family member . Thank you from the bottom of my heart . ❤️
