Lodge Brothers the family you can turn to in time of need

nother fundraising initiative Lodge Brothers support each year, E.Wootten Raise Funds for Macmillan.

 

E.Wootten & Son in Chippenham took part in the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning on Friday 19th September, raising funds for Macmillan Nurses. There were all sorts of homemade cakes on sale throughout the morning, and we were offering tea and coffee to anyone who wished to partake.

We held the sale between 10am and 1pm and raised £80.00 for the charity, we had some people in who had never been into a funeral directors before, so this helped give them an insight into what we were about.

On Sunday 2nd February 2014 the family support team of St John’s Hospice, Moggerhanger held a Service of Remembrance and Thanksgiving at the Parish Church of St John the Evangelist. Chere Hunter welcomed a large congregation to St Johns Church. After the lighting of a candle the congregation all joined in a bidding prayer. The hymn Love divine, all loves excelling was sung followed by a reading from Isaiah and the Act of remembrance. Members of St John’s Hospice staff read verses from the Roll of Remembrance which was interspersed with the reading of names of those who died over the past four months. After prayers a second hymn Lord, for the tears was sung. During the service children coloured in pictures and these were attached to blue and white balloons.

The balloons were released in the churchyard after the final blessing. Volunteers kindly served tea and cake after the service and members of the family support team, bereavement volunteers and members of the chaplaincy team were available to offer support. Jill Little, a member of the family support team said,”I find being involved with these services very rewarding and I am very grateful to Woodman and Sons for donating the balloons”.

Breakfast Meetings at Sunrise Senior Living

December 27th, 2013

Bill Wilde, District Manager who looks after the Surrey and Berkshire area on behalf of the Memorial Restoration family business, has been attending meetings at Sunrise, Weybridge, every three months, an initiative started by the residential home earlier in the year.
Bill said, “They start at seven thirty in the morning with a working breakfast, and are attended by several businesses from the local area. The main areas of discussion are where we are able to better serve the local community working with each other. For example, our Branch Arrangers may be asked about Probate or where care may be obtained for elderly parents, and working in partnership with our local businesses means that we can direct them to the correct people for help and advice. On the plus side, I have made new friends and it has been enjoyable attending these seminars”.

Lodge Brothers have a large range of Kerb Set Memorials and Classic Memorials where permitted, a memorial may cover the full length of the grave giving a wide variety of choice and design. They have put together some of the many designs available and often modify each design to suit individual requirements (eg adding or removing vase posts). The area in the centre can be left for planting, filled with chippings or covered with an internal or external coverslab.
