From the time you first contact us, to the time when all arrangements
are completed, we assure you of our confidentiality, personal care
and genuine desire to look after your every wish to the very highest
standard. We believe it is advisable to get in touch early, to enable
us to give you careful guidance and explain all the necessary procedures
step by step, especially regarding registration. We offer a 24 hour
personal telephone service for such information. Full arrangements
may then be made at a convenient time at our offices, or if preferred,
at your home. It may be that particular wishes for a person’s
funeral have been expressed prior to death in a conversation, in
a will or pre-paid or arranged Funeral Plan.
Details of Pre-Paid Funeral Plans
can be obtained here. Alternatively, you may be unclear as to
what might be appropriate. It’s reassuring to know that our
staff are available to take time to explain and discuss with you
all the options available. Whether your wishes are elaborate or
simple, your choice will always be respected. When making arrangements
many practical details need to be discussed.
The list below is by no means exhaustive and you are invited to
contact us directly for any advice you feel is required.
- Burial or cremation
- Location or Purchase of a family plot
- Date, time and place of the funeral
- Type of service, religious or non religious
- Music, hymns or readings to be included
- Coffin or casket
- Mourning cars
- Floral tributes or donations
- Special requests
- Press notices and announcements
- Reception or refreshments following the service
- Memorials
On the day of the funeral an experienced funeral director will
be in attendance throughout to ensure all arrangements are completed
as requested.
On occasions we are called upon to look after the arrangements
for babies and infant children. During these times, in particular,
families will experience extreme emotion. Our staff provide a sensitive,
caring and compassionate support throughout this very difficult
and at times disturbing period, all proceedings will be completed
with the utmost dignity and respect.
