❤️ SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES – OUR COMMUNITIES NEED YOU! ❤️
Times are tough for so many businesses at the moment. From independent shops and cafés to florists, tradespeople, family-run businesses and local services, many are working incredibly hard just to keep their doors open.
Behind every small business is a person, a family, a dream and often years of hard work and sacrifice.
When you choose to shop locally, you’re doing so much more than making a purchase. You’re helping to support local jobs, families and the communities we all call home.
Supporting local doesn’t always mean spending money.
❤️ Recommend a local business to a friend.
❤️ Share their social media posts.
❤️ Leave a kind review.
❤️ Choose an independent business whenever you can.
❤️ Spread the word about the wonderful businesses on your doorstep.
Our high streets and communities wouldn’t be the same without them.
Small businesses need our support now more than ever. Let’s look after one another.
❤️ When you support local, you’re supporting someone’s livelihood, not just a business.

A little throwback to around four years ago… ❤️
A lovely photograph outside Marc Stephens Funeral Services, showing our gentlemen and our beautiful Jaguar funeral vehicles.
I’ve always believed that presentation, professionalism and attention to detail are incredibly important in funeral directing.
From the immaculate vehicles to the traditional uniforms, every detail matters when a family places their trust in us.
Behind every funeral is a team of dedicated gentlemen who take enormous pride in their work, treating every family and their loved ones with the dignity, care and respect they deserve.
Traditional values, beautiful vehicles and a genuine pride in our profession.
A photograph that brings back some wonderful memories.

😂 WE NEED TO HAVE A WORD ABOUT OUR NEIGHBOURS! 😂
Honestly, some people have absolutely no consideration for the businesses next door!
Every single day we have to put up with the most dreadful conditions…
💐 Beautiful fresh flowers everywhere.
🌷 An outrageous amount of colour brightening up the place.
🌸 Lovely floral fragrances drifting through the air.
🎁 Gorgeous gifts and arrangements tempting everyone who walks past.
☕ And to make matters worse, the constant, irresistible smell of freshly brewed Rijo coffee!
It’s absolutely disgraceful! 😂
We’re trying to run a respectable funeral directors here, and next door they’re making the whole place feel like a little corner of paradise!
We’ve considered making a formal complaint, but unfortunately they keep offering us coffee.
Some neighbours really are impossible to dislike! ❤️
With love from the long-suffering neighbours of Mrs Bouquet 💐😂
