Firstly thank you to all of you who donated Easter Eggs to us before the pandemic meant we had to change our plans for the collection. Just so you know the eggs that were given to us did not go to waste.
Over the last week we gave 150 Easter Eggs which were split between Trinity school who are supporting 40 vulnerable families and also families being supported by DG primary through the free food system for vulnerable children in our community.
We also gave 170 Easter Eggs to the Children wards & NHS front line staff at Darent Valley Hospital (DVH) today to show our support to the amazing staff and all the hard work they are doing to help people during them pandemic.
The collection wasn’t as we had planned but I do hope you all approved of our choice of donation places.
From everyone at Welham Jones we wish you all a peaceful Easter and please stay home and stay safe.
We’re delighted to announce that we are finalists in the Tunbridge Wells Business Awards 2025. We’ve made it to the shortlist of the Best Large Business Category – and we’ll find out if we’ve won at the black-tie event next month.
Over our 30 years supporting families throughout West Kent and Southeast London, we have seen more and more families wanting to personalise their send-off in ways that are as unique as their loved ones – and we have seen them getting more and more creative with it, too. But within that, one ancient form of customisation has been lost – the flowers. Here, we delve into the tradition of flowers at funerals, what each one symbolises, and how you can combine them to convey a quiet message to your loved one.
Losing a loved one is hard. But when a loved one loses a loved one, the hard part is knowing how to act. Do they want to talk? Or fondly reminisce in silence? Do you say, “I’m so sorry,” when you both know all the apologies in the world cannot bring them back? Should you bring them a casserole? And is it even possible to bake a heartful of love and support into a freezer meal?
Everyone grieves differently, but recent data from Theos Think Tank (2023) gives us helpful insights into the most common ways people seek support during bereavement. If you are supporting someone in West Kent or Southeast London, this research – and our guidance – may help you feel more confident in your compassion.
We're here to help
