You have to be in the room when a sector as traditional as ours contemplates the future.

As a company, the William Purves family gives time and space for individuals to shape decisions that require many hours of meetings, networking, and leadership, often after a busy day helping families.

Over the weekend, Gary Staker took on the National Presidency of the National Society of Allied Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF independent funeral directors), and we’re delighted to congratulate him on this appointment. In this role, Gary —pictured on the left with our CEO and the Scottish National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) President, Tim Purves—represents our company and many others striving to uphold the highest standards of funeral care for families throughout the country.
