"Our family can never thank Willow Burn and the team enough for the amazing care and compassion our Mam received. We all take comfort in knowing Mam could not of been in a better place to spend her last days. For that we will be eternally grateful."

“How do I thank you all? Where do I begin? The care, love and support you showed my beautiful sister and also to our whole family was incredible. You are a superb team and you should be very proud of every shift you work. There aren’t enough words or big enough words to continue...so in the words of my sister...if the only prayer you say in your entire life is ‘thank you’ that’ll be enough. Much love to you all ”

Regift and give the gift that keeps on giving
Millions of presents are exchanged between family and friends in the UK every Christmas and while we would like to think everyone loves all of the presents they are given, this isn’t always the case. So instead of throwing a gift out or keeping it in the cupboard until there is a more acceptable time to throw it away, try gifting it to other places.
