The British Red Cross has been helping people in crisis for almost 150 years, whoever and wherever they are. Across the world, we provide emergency supplies and medical assistance to people in desperate need as a result of conflict or natural disasters. We respond within hours and stay long after the emergency is over, reuniting families and helping communities to recover and cope better in future.
In the UK, we help vulnerable people by providing medical equipment, transport and care in the home. We train people in life-saving first aid skills and our volunteers provide vital back up to the emergency services whenever a disaster – such as a fire, train crash or flood – occurs.
Your donation in memory of a loved one to the British Red Cross will be a lasting contribution to the cause of humanity.

Learn more about us
W. Smith and Sons is a genuine family business. In 1892 Walter Smith, a wheelwright from Puriton in Somerset, established his own coach building business in Pine Road, Winton. His work occasionally involved the construction of horse drawn hearses and carriages for the funeral trade, and it was not long before Walter realised that he could also provide a funeral service to supplement his coach building work. By 1896, the business expanded sufficiently to warrant a move to larger premises in Wimborne Road, Winton, where it has remained to this present day. Following Walter’s death in 1934 and the onset of the motor vehicle, it was decided by his sons, Leslie and Gordon, to seize the coach building work and concentrate solely on funeral directing.
