The Bradley family and all at Cliff Bradley & Sons wish to offer their sympathies during the holiday period to all families they have served during the past year. As a team, we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for the continued support, and wish you and your family a peaceful Christmas and prosperous New Year. Our funeral homes in Gainsborough and Saxilby will be staffed throughout the festive period, with members of our qualified team available by phone and email, all day and through the night. Community is at the heart of everything we do, no matter the time, the day or the season. Standard office hours at both branches over the next couple of weeks, and at our memorial showroom, are as follows.

A heartfelt thank you to all those who joined us for our annual memorial services at the start of December. Marking our fourth annual event and our highest overall attendance to date, we were delighted to welcome the Salvation Army brass band for a second year, whose festive songs greeted guests on arrival. Members of our memorials team were warmly welcomed and proud to attend, as our beacon of light once again lit the way for visitors.

As the festive season draws closer, we invite you to our funeral homes throughout December to dedicate a special tribute to those you love, but very sadly no longer see. We hope that by joining together, to share grief as a collective, that we can in some way provide peace and comfort, at times when the absence of a loved one is felt so keenly. For some this may be a first Christmas without that special person, whilst for others this may be a poignant time, a reminder of happier years gone by. Grief and loss are very personal to each one of us.
