Members of 202 did us proud today as they spent 5 hours uncovering graves lost under shrubbery, clearing Holly and making sure all our War Graves are accessible
Several truck loads of Holly and Ivy were removed and the hedges around the Cross of Sacrifice trimmed and area swept.
Our thanks go out to all of them for their work but also their interest in those buried and remembered in Brandwood End.
FBEC are honoured to be members of the above organisation and today and tomorrow we are attending an international conference encompassing members from countries as far away as Serbia and the UK. 
Today is a day to remember those who lost their lives through conflict.
The Cemetery will be closed to vehicles on Wednesday 8th and Thursday 9th December, there will be pedestrian access through the main gate and broad lane, however no vehicles will be able to gain access during this time.
This is due to the roadway leading into the cemetery being resurfaced. Thank you all for your patience but this work has been needed for some time.
Just a reminder. When shopping at Becketts Farm Shop, please pop a token in our community drop box to help us win funding for our day to day projects. The photo above may help you locate it !
A beautiful photograph to accompany a sad loss. Thank you Kaye Williams for allowing us to use this photograph of your brother in law after he played for your father’s interment in Brandwood End.
As well as being special to Kaye, it will also be special to those of us that know and love our Redwoods.
If you were someone interested in helping with Caring for God’s Acre’s project to record memorials/inscriptions in Brandwood End please follow this link if you fancy some indoor winter work transferring the information recorded so far on to the map data base.
Numbers for this indoor event are restricted but this will potentially be the first of many such opportunities to take part, so watch this space.
This notice, showing details, is now on display in the Cemetery. Please note parking issues.

Can we thank all our teams of volunteers, who give their time to help place over 350 poppy crosses on the graves of those buried or remembered in Brandwood End who lost their lives due to conflict.
Sometimes finding those graves can be a challenge, but every one will receive a poppy cross.
