Announcing the passing of a loved one through local news remains a deeply cherished tradition, and we are honoured by the trust placed in us to handle these significant announcements.

Every notice placed in our newspaper and on our news site is also posted immediately on funeral-notices.co.uk — the UK’s leading online destination for death notices and memoriams.
