Funeral home events

V COMMUNITY

Three of South Holland’s funeral homes will be opening their doors to the public as part of Dying Matters Awareness Week.

The week runs from May 12-18 with the theme ‘You only die once’ and people are encouraged to take five simple steps to make their end of life experience better, from telling family their wishes, to planning ahead with a funeral bond.

Lincolnshire Co-op’s Spalding branch will hold an open day this Tuesday, the Holbeach branch on Thursday, May 15 and Long Sutton on Friday, May 16.

All three events run from 10am-3pm.
