Even if they've lived and worked in a place for many years, some families want to return to their roots when they die.

Our specialist repatriation team ensures citizens get home safely, whether that is to or from the UK.

And being a funeral director, we can provide a full service that includes long-term care, a full funeral service with onward repatriation of ashes, and a concierge service for families.

Andrew Purves, COO of William Purves Funeral Directors, has been part of a working group advising the Scottish government on the introduction of water cremation.

Also known as hydrolysis, Scotland could be the first part of the UK to introduce this, following recent changes in legislation.

Featured in an article for The Sunday Times yesterday, Andrew discusses the process of hydrolysis and the benefits it could bring to families seeking the best way to say goodbye to their loved ones.
