The family are saddened to announce the passing of Alan George Blake on the 1st March 2024 aged 71 years, shortly after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
If you would like to donate to the MND Association in lieu of a floral tribute please click here.
If you'll be coming to Alan's funeral by train, the quickest route from London is the fast train from London Bridge to Sevenoaks, which takes 23 minutes (usually departs from platform 7). There's a taxi rank at Sevenoaks station which always has cars waiting, then it’s 13 mins drive to Bluebell Crematorium. (Knockholt is actually the closest station to the crem, but you have to take a slow train to go there which takes twice as long, then a taxi, so the fast train and taxi from Sevenoaks is the best option).
Following the service at Bluebell Crematorium in Halstead TN14 7AE there will be a celebration of Alan's life which will take place at The Bull in Otford TN14 5PG from around 1.45pm (a 10-minute drive from the crematorium).
The Bull is walking distance from Otford station, should you wish to get the train home from there, or Sevenoaks station is 10 minutes by taxi.
If you have any questions, Sam is on 07946 352215.
