Award-Winning Social Enterprise – Keeping up the Good Work!
Many people choose the services of Green Willow Funerals Limited because, in addition to receiving professional and caring attention at a time of need, they know that our profit funds such a wide range of charitable activity in communities across South Wales. Profit is transferred to the Cardiff YMCA (1910) Trust who, in turn, distribute grants to organisations, agencies, clubs and individuals that are doing fantastic work within their neighbourhood or community of interest.
Green Willow Funerals Limited is delighted that the part we play in enhancing the lives of individuals and communities has received much recognition recently:
We were awarded “Highly Commended” status in the “Social Impact” category of Social Business Wales Awards 2021. View our certificate here.
We were shortlisted for an award for “Community Engagement” by Golden Charter (our partner Funeral Planning Company)
We have been shortlisted for a “Community Impact” award in the South Wales Argus Awards, the outcome of which will be announced mid November 2021
