‘The House of Life offered a unique setting for our recent Away Day. We enjoyed an informative (and often entertaining!) tour of the cemetery from one of the volunteers, before heading into the cosy Visitor Centre for our meeting. The Visitor Centre Team made us feel welcome and comfortable, and I would recommend it as a venue to other groups looking for a memorable experience.’
