Because Love Never Fades. Caring For Their Resting Place As If It Were Our Own

Welcome to Always Loved Never Forgotten Grave Care

We understand how important it is to keep your loved ones' resting places looking peaceful, tidy, and cared for. If you live away or are unable to visit as often as you would like, we provide reliable, respectful grave-tending and memorial maintenance with absolute care and dedication.

Complimentary Site Inspection & Condition Report

We offer a no-obligation, free site inspection to assess the current condition of your loved one’s resting place. Our goal is to provide a clear understanding of the site so we can offer the best possible care.

Our complimentary service includes:

Plot Location & Assessment: We will locate the site and determine the plot type, whether it is a full grave or a headstone, to better understand your specific needs.

Condition Report: A detailed assessment of the grave’s current state.

Visual Documentation: We will take photos to help you clearly see the current condition of the site.

Tailored Advice & Design: Based on our inspection, we will draft a proposed care plan and design options, providing expert advice on the best way to maintain or enhance the site.

No-Obligation Quote: You will receive a transparent, no-obligation quote, giving you the time and space to decide what is right for you.

Single Respectful Visit

Bring a beautiful, fresh look back to your loved one’s resting place.

Whether it is for your own peace of mind, or to ensure the plot looks pristine ahead of a special anniversary, birthday, or family visit, our one-off care visit is the perfect way to show you care. We treat every plot with the utmost respect, ensuring it remains a place of beauty and comfort.

Pricing:

Lawn Graves / Cremated Remains Plots: From £40

Traditional Graves: From £70

Note: These prices are for standard maintenance. If a memorial has not been tended for several years and requires more extensive work to restore, a supplemental fee may apply. We will always discuss this with you after assessing the site.

This service includes:

Detailed weeding of the entire plot.

Grass trimming and neat edge cutting for a tidy finish.

Clearance of debris, including fallen leaves and withered flowers.

Gentle hand-washing of the headstone and memorial items to safely remove surface dirt and moss.

Trimming of any overgrown bushes or plants directly within the plot.

Complimentary photo updates sent directly to you, showing both the before and after of our work.

Annual Maintenance Plan

Consistent care for year-round peace of mind.

Many families choose our Annual Maintenance Plan to ensure their loved one's resting place remains pristine throughout every season. By scheduling regular, monthly visits, you never have to worry about the state of the plot—it is always cared for, even when you cannot be there yourself.

The plan includes 12 professional visits per year:

One scheduled visit every month to keep the plot looking tidy and respected.

All services from our 'Single Respectful Visit' performed at every monthly interval.

A detailed report and high-quality photo update sent to you after every single visit.

We are also happy to provide extra care for those special dates, such as birthdays or anniversaries, to ensure the plot is looking especially beautiful for those meaningful moments.

Bi-Monthly Maintenance Plan

Seasonal care for your peace of mind.

If you prefer a lighter touch, our Bi-Monthly plan ensures your loved one's memorial is tended to every two months. This is an excellent way to keep the plot neat and tidy throughout the year without the commitment of a full monthly schedule.

The plan includes 6 professional visits per year:

One scheduled visit every two months (6 visits annually).

All services from our 'Single Respectful Visit' performed at each interval.

Birthdays & Anniversaries

Mother’s Day & Father’s Day

Easter

Christmas & New Year

Remembrance Day

Delivery & Placement Fee: £25 per visit

(This fee covers travel and the time taken to place your tribute. The cost of the flowers or item is additional and agreed upon in advance).

Post-Occasion Clearance & Tidying

We know that special occasion tributes bring comfort, but over time, flowers naturally wither. Clearing them at the correct time is essential—not only to prevent the memorial from looking messy, but also to avoid potential damage to the headstone from decaying organic matter or trapped moisture, while keeping the plot fully compliant with cemetery regulations. If you cannot visit to tidy up yourself, we offer a dedicated clearance service. Following a birthday, anniversary, or holiday tribute, we will return to respectfully remove old flowers, clear away packaging, and ensure the headstone and surrounding area remain pristine. To provide complete peace of mind, we will take a photograph of the memorial once completed and send it directly to you so you can see how neat and cared for it looks.

Investment: Lawn Graves / Cremated Remains Plots: £30 per clearance visit

Traditional Graves: £60 per clearance visit (includes respectful disposal and a confirmation photo).

Post-Funeral Memorial Care

Honouring their memory after the funeral.

The period immediately following a funeral is often overwhelming. We provide a respectful, professional service to manage the floral tributes at the grave, ensuring your loved one's final resting place remains tidy and honoured in the weeks after the service.

Our Post-Funeral Care includes:

Tribute Management: We monitor the grave during the cemetery's initial "clearing period."

Card Preservation: We carefully collect the heartfelt sympathy cards and notes attached to the flowers. We can scan these for you or post the originals back to your home.

Respectful Clearing: Once the funeral flowers have served their purpose and begun to fade, we remove them in a dignified manner.

Initial Tidy-Up: We perform an initial cleaning of the headstone and plot area to ensure it is left pristine.

Investment:

Lawn Graves / Cremated Remains Plots: £65 (Includes two site visits)

Traditional Graves: £95 (Includes two site visits)

Note: This package includes two dedicated visits—one to collect personal items/cards and a final visit to clear and tidy the memorial once the flowers have faded.

Bringing Lasting Life and Colour to Their Resting Place
