Frank Woods Funeral Directors are taking part in the Alzheimers Society Cupcake Day on Thursday, June 13.

Friends and carers of dementia sufferers are invited to go along and meet others in the same situation.

“We also have an illuminated memory tree which is in reception for people who have lost a father to hang a tag in time for Father’s Day.”

Father’s Day is on Sunday, June 16. Entry to the Cupcake Day event is £2.
