Announcing the passing of a loved one in local news media is a time-honoured tradition, and we are honoured to be trusted with these important announcements. Every death notice and funeral announcement published in our newspaper and on our news site is also shared on funeral-notices.co.uk — the UK’s leading website for death notices and memorials.
Each notice remains online permanently, serving as a lasting tribute where friends and family can share memories, post tributes, upload photographs, and make donations in memory of their loved ones. Every week, we pay homage to those remembered in our community through published funeral notices and dedicated online tribute pages.
To view the latest announcements or to add your own tributes to loved ones from our area, you can visit the online platform or contact our helpful team on 01482 908084 to create a funeral notice.
