Safety is paramount to us here at Bishops funeral services In preparation of our new ceremony venue opening in Yeovil, The Butterfly Rooms, some of our team have been achieving their first aid certification today. With congregations up to 180 mourners within our building, it’s important that our staff are trained in case of any initial first aid requirements.

Here at Bishops Funeral Services we are continually assessing products we provide in order to keep the costings of funerals down for everybody.
We have noticed a gradual increase in the costings of death and funeral announcements in newspapers.
As of today we will be offering FREE announcements of deaths and funeral details on our social media pages and will be sharing throughout the county to notify friends of the families loved one of their passing and the funeral details should they wish to attend to say farewell.
These details will only be posted with the next of kin’s signed authorisation to publish.

This evening, Tracey, our Funeral Director went to work in her second job as she is also an elf who helps Father Christmas in Lapland. This evening Father Christmas and his trusty elf visited the children at Martock Primary School PTA Christmas party to make sure they have been good. Handing out reindeer food to the children to leave out on Christmas Eve for their very hungry reindeer.
Stuart was nowhere to be seen 😮
