This week marks , a national campaign led by Hospice UK that encourages open, honest conversations around death, dying, and grief.

The 2026 theme, ‘Let's talk about death and dying’ aims to break down the stigma and taboo of talking about death and dying.

27% of people find it hard to talk about death with family or friends, and 30% bottle their feelings up. If we don’t talk about death and dying and bereavement, it can be harder to cope when we experience it. Death, dying and bereavement affect us all. This Dying Matters Awareness Week let's focus on the importance of conversations about death and dying. Because Talking about Dying Matters.

🖤 Today is International Bereaved Mother's Day 🖤

A day to honour and remember all mother's who have experienced the unimaginable loss of a child - whether through miscarriage, stillbirth, infancy, or later in life.

Grief has no timeline, and this day is a reminder that every mother’s pain, love, and memories matter. You are not alone, and your child is never forgotten.

If you’re supporting someone through loss today, a small act of kindness or a listening ear can mean the world.

This Earth Day, we’re reflecting on how we can remember loved ones in ways that are both meaningful and mindful of the world around us 🌿

If you’re looking for a thoughtful tribute, here are some gentle, eco-conscious ideas that honour both memory and nature:

🌳 Plant a tree
Create a lasting, living tribute that grows over time — a place to visit, reflect, and remember.

🫧 Choose bubbles over balloons
A beautiful, symbolic gesture that’s kinder to the environment while still creating a special moment.

🌸 Scatter petals
Let nature carry your tribute — a simple and peaceful way to say goodbye in a meaningful location.

🌼 Sow wildflower seeds
Bring life, colour, and biodiversity to a space while creating a lasting natural memorial.

🪨 Leave a pebble message
Write a memory or message on a stone and leave it somewhere meaningful — a quiet, personal tribute.

Even the smallest acts can leave a lasting impact. This Earth Day, we’re reminded that remembrance and care for the planet can go hand in hand. 💚

You may have seen recent coverage in the news about a funeral director in Hull who has pleaded guilty to serious offences, including failing to ensure proper burials and misleading families about the ashes they received. The case has understandably caused significant distress and concern for many people.

Stories like this are deeply troubling and do not reflect the standards that families should expect from our profession.

In light of recent events, our practices, procedures, and facilities have been subject to inspection involving representatives from the Ministry of Justice.

We want to reassure our clients and community that we are committed to the highest levels of care, dignity, and professionalism at all times. Every person entrusted to us is treated with respect, and every family is supported with compassion.

At a time when families need reassurance the most, we remain dedicated to doing things properly.

Mother’s Day can be a beautiful celebration of love and appreciation. But for many, it’s also a day that brings quiet moments of reflection for those no longer here.

If today feels a little heavier, please remember you’re not alone. Missing someone you love is a reflection of the deep bond you shared, and it’s natural for those feelings to surface on days like this.

As you move through the day, take a moment to be kind to yourself. Hold onto the memories, the love, and the moments that will always be part of you. 🤍
