A Windsor funeral arranger has received national recognition after being chosen by the Co-op for their ‘Do What Matters Most’ award.

Laura Tilbury, who works at Co-op Funeralcare on Dedworth Road, won the award after being nominated by colleagues. She received her accolade at a special ceremony at the Co-op’s May annual meeting.

She helped to re-open the funeral home in Windsor after it closed last year.

Ms Tilbury said: “A family will never get over something going wrong in a funeral – so we make sure nothing does.

“I feel that this award is for all the funeral arrangers in this area. I know colleagues that go out of their way all the time to help families in any way they can – that’s just what you do.”
