A TOWN mayor has been visiting the funeral homes at the forefront of dealing with the Covid-19 death toll.
Mayor of Darlington Chris McEwan, wanted to recognise the efforts of funeral directors who have been doing their best to provide the best service to families, despite the ongoing restrictions and challenges.
He visited six businesses in the town – Co-operative funeral care, Seaton Leng funeral directors, Whitehouse funeral service, Saint and Forster funeral directors, John Meynell funeral directors and Darlington funeral service – to say thanks and give a small token of appreciation, with the help of Sandra Mellor, community champion at Morrisons Morton Park.
