Planning a funeral
Our guides on planning a funeral will ensure your loved one's send off is a personal and unique celebration of their life. We will explain how our Funeral Directors will help you plan a funeral service and support you at every stage.

Frequently asked questions
When someone dies, the first steps will depend on how and where the person passed away. Our step-by-step guides will walk you through the practical steps. For additional support and personal advice, please get in touch with us.
You don't have to make an appointment at our funeral homes. However, doing so will ensure that someone can be available to cater to your needs. When arranging a funeral, our Funeral Directors are happy to visit you in your own home, if required.
Third party funeral costs are additional charges which we will manage for you and attach to your single invoice. Get in touch with us to confirm costs and plan a funeral to fit your budget.
If you choose to arrange the funeral with us, you will be given the option of a complimentary Funeral Notice. We will set it up for you using the details discussed during the arrangements. All we need is an email address.
Dignity Funeral Plans let you pay for your funeral in advance and at today's price. It's a way of taking control of the unexpected, setting out the arrangements and limiting the costs by paying for the services included in the funeral plan upfront.
From 9 September 2024, there will no longer be a doctor's fee in England and Wales when arranging a funeral. This is because from this date, all deaths in England and Wales will be independently viewed, either by a relevant coroner or by a Medical Examiner and the cost will be met by the NHS.
A Medical Examiner is a specifically trained independent senior doctor who will scrutinise all deaths across a local area that do not fall under the coroner's jurisdiction. By providing a greater level of scrutiny over the cause of deaths; it is hoped that the introduction of Medical Examiners will make it less likely that unnatural causes of death will go unnoticed; that the number of deaths unnecessarily referred to the coroner will be reduced and that national data about causes of death will be captured with greater accuracy.
Medical Examiners, or Medical Examiner Officers, will also be available to meet with families, or their representatives, if they wish to discuss the cause of death.

Following the recent passing of my grandmother, I wanted to express our sincere thanks for the exceptional care and attention to detail shown throughout.
Caroline and Mark were outstanding from start to finish, calm, compassionate, and highly professional at every stage. Nothing was too much trouble, and every detail was handled with genuine care, dignity, and respect, which made an incredibly difficult time far more manageable for our family.
Their organisation, communication, and sensitivity gave us complete confidence and allowed us to focus on saying goodbye properly. We are truly grateful for the support we received and would not hesitate to recommend their services to others.

Caroline and Mark will be truly touched to hear how much their support and care meant to you. They take great pride in ensuring every family feels listened to, supported, and looked after, and your message reflects exactly the standard they strive to provide.
We are grateful that, in such a challenging moment, their compassion, attention to detail, and professionalism brought you comfort and confidence. It means a great deal to us that we were able to help you focus on saying goodbye in the way that felt right for your family.
