3 May: Meet Braddicks & Sherborne
Our next COMBEbusiness event is at Braddicks and Sherborne in St Brannocks Road at 7.15pm on Wednesday 3 May. All businesses are welcome to this evening.
Braddicks and Sherborne was established as a funeral director in 2001 in Bideford and opened its new Ilfracombe premises in St Brannocks Road in 2015.
Andy Punchard welcomes you to Braddicks and Sherborne to find out more about the business and to answer any questions you may have about funeral directors. Some people are hesitant about discussing funerals and Andy will demonstrate how Braddicks and Sherborne creates an atmosphere in which you can feel comfortable talking and learning about them.
“As a family business we believe in looking after everyone’s loved one as if they are one of our own, providing the very best of care and focusing on the needs of the family at all times. We are exceptionally proud of our exemplary local reputation and pride ourselves on providing a personal, caring, 24 hour service to the people of North Devon.”
How much do we know about each other’s businesses? These events aim to provide an insight into various local businesses and, through a greater understanding of different sectors, to increase networking and business opportunities. If we all know what we do, it will be easier to support each other.
Everyone is welcome to these events – you don’t have to be a COMBEbusiness member, although we invite you to join for £5.
