Iles & Vincent Funeral Services

Earlier this week we had the huge privilege to look after a gentleman who's final journey was in 'Alexander' the Land Rover hearse and the service was held in this stunning location. We also donned special ties to match the beautiful sunflowers inside that had been picked from the families own fields! 🌻

We are preparing for our March ‘Mothers Day’ window display and would be honoured to use photos of mums that are no longer with us. We would like to ask for your favourite photo of your mum to be emailed to [email protected] by Monday 21st February so they can be printed and framed and ready to be displayed.

To show our support of ‘LGBT History Month’, this February we have changed our window display in the Cornmarket with a specially made willow coffin (supplied by Musgrove Willow), woven in natural dye coloured locally grown willow in the six colours of the pride flag.

Our Christmas display window, recognising what a poignant time Christmas can be for some families - particularly those recently bereaved.

Our Christmas tree of remembrance is up, as we acknowledge that the festive season is looming and how difficult it can be for our bereaved families. We have added a named star for everyone who we have looked after this year. Families and passers-by are invited to come inside and write a message to a lost loved-one on a card to hang on the tree in their memory.

These two amazing young ladies have been busy putting special Christmas boxes together for us to deliver to the women's refuge! Thank you!🥰

'In proud and grateful memory of Warminster men who fell fighting for us and their country'.
It is always an honour to dress our window for Remembrance and include our banner showing all the names on the Warminster War Memorial. Lest we forget. 🌺

We had a very special visit from an amazing young lady called Issy Mounsher today! Issy organised a lemonade stand and raised a whopping £35. She spent that money on selection boxes, chocolates and toys and made up some bags for us to take over to the women's refuge! These very thoughtful gifts will definitely be making some children smile over the festive period. Thank you so much Issy, you are a star!⭐️

We have been honoured with a visit from Tanya from Secret Bird Art of Warminster. According to myths and legends, Robins appear once a loved one is dead. Allegedly, the Robin is often seen after you encounter a loss of someone you love, who is the spirit of the deceased person trying to tell you not to worry and that they love you. A simple message from heaven, that this loved one is watching over you.

Iles & Vincent Christmas appeal for Salisbury Women's Refuge and Helping Victims of Domestic Charity.
We will now be collecting small Christmas items and sweet treats to donate to those needing the help of these charities over the festive period. Please help us to help put a smile on the faces of some of the adults and children using these two very special charities.
Dolls, teddies, toy cars, small puzzles and games, art and craft sets, coloured pencils, felt pens or crayon, colouring books, hats, gloves, scarf, socks, candles and Christmas selection boxes, tubes of sweets and biscuits, will all be very gratefully received.
Thank you!

Anna and Bev and the team at Iles and Vincent Funeral Services are very proud and honoured to have been awarded the UK Enterprise award for Best Independent Funeral Directors, Wiltshire!

To mark the anniversary of the country being in lockdown, Bev and I have set up our rainbow tree of remembrance here in the office to remember those lives lost so far, during this pandemic. We have tags available for anyone who wishes to come into the office to place the name of their loved one on the tree, when it is safe to do so.
