FAMILIES can remember their loved ones this Christmas at an Evesham funeral home.

Philip Tomlins Funeral Directors in Bengeworth has set up a memorial Christmas tree which relatives and friends can decorate with cards in memory of those close to them who have died.

Anna Muratore at Philip Tomlins said: “This is the sixth year we have offered a memorial tree in honour of those who have died, as it has always proved to be a great help for relatives and friends.

“We know that Christmas and New Year, in particular, is a time when people look back and remember those they’ve lost and we hope our memorial Christmas tree will again benefit the families concerned at this difficult time.”

Philip Tomlins is open from 9am until 5pm and people will be able to leave memorial cards on the tree up until Christmas Eve.
