Cheeky fan gets his favourite band to play in Bournemouth

Acid jazz and funk pioneers The Brand New Heavies are to play in Bournemouth – after a fan asked them to perform in memory of his mum. Steve Heald, from Ferndown, who is being assisted by AE Jolliffe & Son of Douch Family Funeral Directors, will donate all profits of the concert to UK Dementia Research Institute.

Message of hope at dementia seminars

More than 120 delegates attended three seminars about dementia hosted by Dorset’s Douch Family Funeral Directors. Speakers addressed packed rooms at the funeral group’s branches in Blandford, Parkstone and Corfe Mullen.

Douch’s dementia seminars open to all

Businesses as well as individuals are invited to attend free seminars about living with dementia. Dorset’s Douch Family Funeral Directors are putting on the events in Blandford, Poole and Corfe Mullen during Dementia Action Week.
