A firm of funeral directors sent Valentine’s Day cards to residents of a care home, in what has been described as an “appalling stunt” that the undertakers have admitted was “misjudged”.

The cards sent to Whitegates Care Centre in Surrey were decorated with a red heart and a pink bow, the Sun reported, and bore the words: “Sent with love from TH Sanders & Sons.”
