DIRECT CREMATIONS £1,250

Direct cremations are not for everyone but they are becoming increasingly popular.

When choosing a direct cremation it’s important that families understand the difference between a direct cremation with a local, family-run provider and the experience you may get from a large, national online company.

You’ll always deal with us, a familiar, caring face. You won’t be dealing with a faceless call centre or a different voice each time you call. The team at our local, family run funeral home will guide you through the process with genuine compassion.

Your loved one WILL NOT be brought into care by third-party contractors, instead they will be brought into care by one of our team.

Your loved one WILL NOT be resting in some warehouse half way down the country, instead they will rest in our funeral home until the day they are laid to rest.

Your loved one WILL NOT be transported hundred of miles away for their cremation, instead they will be cremated at a local crematorium.

As a family-run, independent funeral service, we have you and your loved one’s best interests at heart. We promise a respectful, dignified cremation with the personal touch that only a local, caring funeral home can offer.

For further information or questions please call us on 01913897245 we also support DWP.

Sadly this is so heartbreakingly true 💔 Just lately we are having more and more drivers on the roads being impatient and trying to push in on the Funeral Cortège’s in between the Hearse and the Limousines with bereaved family members in, and even on funerals with our horses too.

This is happening to the point where accidents have nearly been caused because someone just wants to cut in or to cut through.

I appreciate we drive slower, but this is someone’s final journey, and this is done out of respect.

Whether this makes you 30 seconds, one minute or two minutes late for where you need to be, think about that person who has passed and the families that are following.

A final journey is so precious 🤍

It was an honour to look after the funeral arrangements for Mrs. Gowland’s dad earlier this year. Mrs. Gowland is the Head Teacher at Cestria Primary School, and we were so touched to receive this beautiful Remembrance Day artwork created by the children.

We always like to involve and celebrate our local community, and it means a lot to see the next generation taking such care to remember and reflect. The thought and effort that’s gone into these pieces is truly special🌹

The artwork is now on display here, and everyone is very welcome to pop in and have a look! It’s well worth a visit!!!

A big thank you to all the pupils and staff at Cestria School for sharing something so meaningful with us❤️

If there’s one thing we are reminded of daily as Funeral Directors…it’s that life is short.

It’s not the amount of years you have,
it’s about making the most of those years 🫶🏻
