Memorial Service raises funds for Air Ambulance
Dignity funeral homes in Bristol, together with local bereaved families, have donated over £1,600 to the Great Western Air Ambulance Appeal.
The branches held their third annual memorial service at Bristol Cathedral on 30 May so that families and friends could remember their loved ones who have passed away over the previous twelve months.
Area manager, Duncan Mason explained, “Those who attended have told us that they found the service a very moving occasion. Families made donations towards the Great Western Air Ambulance Appeal at the end of the service.”
Duncan presented a cheque to Paul Weir, Chief Executive of the charity.
