Lodge Brothers Funeral Directors are unequivocally the most accessible Funeral Directors in the country which means that you do not have to go far to find them when the times comes that you may be needing their services. 2020 began with the harsh reality that we all need to expect the unexpected. COVID 19 has caused mayhem across the country and globally and sadly resulted in the passing of thousands of people both young and old. While the older members of our country and those with underlying health issues have been struck down the most, it does not mean that a person can afford to be nonchalant. Each person has the responsibility of taking action to ensure their health and safety and that of those who they are closest to. Lodge Brothers have seen first hand how this global pandemic has affected many families which is why we are so grateful that they are literally just down the road from you when needed most.

Patient care and patient affairs Ascot are of utmost importance to each and every Lodge Brothers funeral home across the UK.  A funeral is not the only aspect to take care of when a person passes away. There are other aspects of patient affairs Ashford, that one can only know once you have experienced the loss of someone close to you. Lodge Brothers are privileged to have dedicated funeral directors like, Zara, from Lodge Brothers Funeral Directors Guildford who has experienced the loss of a loved one and as a result is dedicated to helping others with the utmost compassion and care, coupled with know-how and experience of the industry, which means that she is infinitely qualified to help you and yours.

For as long as Industrial Blower Services Limited (IBS) has been operational, the company has retained a reputation as the “go to” supplier for Industrial pumps and vacuums in the UK. Nowhere else will you find available stock of restored and second-hand equipment, as well as brand new reputable industrial equipment from reliable producers such as Robushci, Siemens, Hoffman, and Sulzer which means that whatever it is you need for your business, chances are IBS has the provider that you seek.

Portable industrial Vacuum units such as FVP 25 Portable Heavy-Duty High-Performance Industrial Vacuum Loaders, are capable of collecting any variety of materials, including fine particles, through to aggregates of up to 50 mm in size. Designed for high performance and built for reliability with the highest quality standards, this unit has a loading capacity of an impressive 3 tons per each hour for a distance of 40 meters or more, when utilised with a vacuum interceptor skip and fixed pipework system. Impressive by any standard, this unit is a valuable asset to your business which is guaranteed to increase loading times resulting in much higher output than ever experienced before. The FVP25 makes easy work in dry and wet conditions making it one of the most versatile and flexible units on the market today. Used to power a centralised vacuum system to feed material back into the processor for bagging purposes the unit is both productive and portable, featuring a cubic meter integral tipping skip.

IBS offers a no-obligation trial run which allows you to test this unit and its capabilities prior to committing to the product as well as the cost. To facilitate your decision-making process, site surveys can be performed, and our team of professional engineers will provide all their valuable practical knowledge and advice to ensure your satisfaction with your purchase. In the event that you prefer to utilize the unit on a temporary basis or are looking to hire or lease the unit as an alternative, IBS agrees to supply the unit with terms and conditions which suit your production needs.

Another great example of industrial supremacy supplied by IBS is the Side Channel Blowers and vacuum pumps for utilization with sewage treatments, chemical, pharmaceutical, plastics, food, pulp, paper, electronics, textile production, packaging, conveying, printing and other industries. IBS is a preferred supplier for Robuschi, Busch, Becker, Rietschle, Edwards, Leybold, Siemens side channel blowers which means that these elite suppliers trust and value the services IBS offers, trusting that IBS will hold true to the high standards which these produce set for themselves and sustain their integrity in the marketplace. And in conjunction with the IBS’ promise of superior products, there is the offer of service exchanges that are offered in the event that any of your industrial vacuums or pumps require servicing or repair. IBS will ensure an exchange unit so that you do not have to carry the cost of the repair and servicing as well as losing valuable production time. Planned or unplanned downtime can leave you on the backfoot against your competitors and so IBS will forward a reconditioned replacement unit to your site to keep you up and running, regardless.

As the world faces the unprecedented loss of life as the result of the COVID-19 Corona Virus, it brings it home that life can be fine one day and not the next. In the UK we are facing never before seen unexpected loss into the thousands as a result of this pandemic, and now is when we begin to understand just how fragile life truly is, especially for people with underlying health conditions.

When there is a death in the family there is not the possible amount of preparation a person can do which will lessen the effects that it has on the remaining members of the family, especially and most severely when the loss is unexpected and not anticipated. Studies have shown that depending on the nature of death, the ripple effects will be felt in different ways for different people, at different psychological levels for varying periods of time. Tragic loss can occur when least expected in the form of accidental deaths, suicide, late-stage miscarriage and stillbirth, and still more unthinkable scenarios involving children, young adults, and generally, physically healthy individuals which can leave any person wondering “why them” and “why now”. Most of us hope that when our time comes, we will be privileged enough to go peacefully in our sleep, but the reality is that this is not often simply not the case.

By the time a person is infected with the virus, it can still take 2 – 14 days for symptoms to manifest during which time a person may pass it on to countless and untold numbers of other people. As a community, the time has come to take all precautions and stick together while staying positive and sanitized. But when all else fails and someone in your family succumbs, there is support waiting just down the road from every hospital. Lodge Brothers are located as close as physically possible to the patient affairs Ascot linked to the local hospital. The locality of Lodge Brothers to the epicenter of the even of passing is strategically done so as to ensure that there is as little stress placed on the family as logistically possible when everything else becomes suddenly so complicated, especially when death is unexpected. The death of an individual must be registered within 5 days which means that the family must prioritise this important aspect as soon as possible. Most of the time, funeral arrangements will begin at the same time and within the same timeframe.

Lodge Brothers are continuously improving our location coverage to ensure our availability wherever our clients need us. In our Lodge Brothers area, there are Patient Affairs Ashford as well as branches across London and South East, allowing us to help and support you as soon as possible.

I have also decided to share an interesting article I found on their website:

HOW DO WE DELIVER A RELIABLE POWER SUPPLY TO THE MARQUEE?

A recent large electrical fire in London, brought the importance of the provision of power for any marquee hire to the forefront of our minds here at JF & Trafalgar Marquee Hire.

The correct provision of power for any event, and outdoor event involving marquee hire is crucial. It is also often an area that is overlooked, and one that is brushed to the side.

Whilst this may be the case, it does not solve the issue of providing the correct supply for the demand in the marquee. Not only can this lead to serious health and safety implications (it’s worth noting that we are members of our industry body MUTA). It could also seriously impact the smooth running of you event. Not to mention, the worst case scenario, plunging it into darkness.

At JF & Trafalgar Marquees we would much rather focus on the event itself and its positive outcome, helping you on your way to deliver an amazing, and unforgettable experience (for all the right reasons). To that end, electrical supply is one of the key factors we discuss and advise our clients on. To ensure your exacting requirements are met, we use qualified and registered (17th edition) electricians for power installations in our marquees. They are consulted from concept to delivery and updated on the life cycle of your event, taking into account any changes that may occur, regardless of how large or small these may be.

On larger functions and events, involving significant cabling and distribution, we often supply an onsite standby electrician in addition to our standard 24hr call out facility. Should you be curious about how we do what we do, an example of such an event, can be seen here (where we supplied, a mains generator, standby and standby electrician, along with all cabling, sockets, and lighting).

The type of power supply we recommend and install, depends on the equipment and requirements from services in and around the marquee. Typically, this takes the form of a mains installation from the house or nearest building; this may be 32amps or up to 63amp three phase. Once the supply is taken from the house/building or generator, it is fed to a temporary distribution board within the marquee or catering/services area and then distributed to all relevant areas of the marquee. This could include catering areas, band, DJ, bars etc.

In addition we also offer a full generator hire service, should it not be possible to access mains electricity. Alternatively a generator can be hired simply as a standby (we supply these with automatic changeover) should the main generator or mains power fail.

Lodge Brothers are well known for their involvement within the community. Its been an extremely busy time for them celebrating Mothers Day and remembering all the mothers is a special way. Easter arrived soon after and once again they were involved making people feel special and spending time with folk in nursing homes.

Mothers’ Day Marked By Lodge Brothers Esher

Lodge Brothers Funeral Directors Esher staff remembered those Mothers no longer with us by displaying flowers and a beautiful poem in the branch windows, inviting all to come in and share their special memories.

District Manager Bill Wilde said “It is a special time of year to celebrate our Mothers, and at Lodge Brothers we wanted to be able to offer the local community the chance to remember those who are no longer with us. Mums may have passed away but it doesn’t mean that we ever forget them.
Many passers by have come into the branches to say how much they have enjoyed the displays and the efforts of the staff”.

Lodge Brothers funeral directors Chertsey  and Lodge Brothers funeral directors Hampton Hill as well as all the other Lodge Brother funeral directors throughout the UK joined in the Easter festivities by decorating their shop front and joining the community with various initiatives:

Easter Gifts for Sutton Lodge Nursing Home

Jackie said, “I have delivered Easter treats to Sutton Lodge for the past three years and it is lovely to see the smiles on the faces of the residents when I visit them. I really enjoy having a chat and being able to give these small gifts to brighten up their day”.

Give a Gift from the Heart – Mothers days Gifts

Mother’s Day crafts ideas don’t have to be elaborate they just have to be made from the heart. These crafts also take Mother Nature to heart and are made with one of more recycled material like scrap paper, old books, even those little plugs from milk and juice cartons.

One of the best parts of creating with your child is the time you spend together. Parent and tot projects like this Beach Shell DIY Craft Picture Frame  are a special time to not only work together on something but also to practice taking turns something that can never be done too much .

Gather your materials. You will need some cardboard ( 2x as large as you want the frame to be) , a large magnet , crayons, shells, hot glue gun and glue, scissors , tape and a picture.

Start by cutting your cardboard in half, then cutting an opening in one piece for the frame.

Tape your picture ( I trimmed mine) on the other half  of the cardboard. Trim the cardboard so that it’s no larger than the frame piece , you don’t want it peeking out from underneath.

Have your child decorate the frame with crayons.

Heat up the glue gun. Glue shells on, Glue the magnet on the back of the piece with the picture. Glue the two pieces together and let cool.

Gather your materials. You will need some milk carton plugs, hot glue gun, hot glue, seed beads, and a small dish that won’t stick to the glue. I used a 2nd dish for the ring to cool in but that was just my preference.

1. Pour a mixture of seed beads into a small dish. You don’t want to use too big a dish because you want the beads to be close together .
2. Turn the plug inside out , so when you slide it on your finger the solid part stands up against your finger.
3. Add hot glue to the solid part that will be facing out. You want a lot of glue.
4. Quickly dip it into the beads, gently press it into them.
5. Let dry! It’s that easy. Just remember to let it dry completely before wearing it.

Erecting marquees on hard standing

Our DIY Marquees like most Commercial Marquees for sale are quality ones that can be erected on hard standing. There is the small issue of how to anchor the marquee down (answer: longer tie downs to a nearby soft surface, bolting or use heavy weights) but otherwise it is easily done.

There is one small issue which you should make your customer aware of and that is what happens when it rains. If a patio normally floods in heavy rain, a marquee won’t stop that occurring. If the hard standing has a slope then water may try to flow through the marquee.

The risks of this happening are usually very slight and whilst it’s worth mentioning to customers it’s not worth going overboard or scaremongering about it. If the forecast is bad there are some solutions:

• Wooden floor throughout – this raises the floor up so the water passes under. The best solution but also by far the most expensive and most work.
• sandbags or similar round the perimeter of the marquee.
• strips of carpet underneath the groundbars – this was suggested to me recently by a marquee hire company and I think it’s an excellent and resourceful idea. Strips of old carpet rolled up and then squashed underneath the groundbars cuts out all but torrential rain from making its way in to the marquee.
