What type of funeral is to be arranged
Religious, Civil and non Denominational
The majority of funerals consist of the deceased being removed to the church for a mass or service , before proceeding to the cemetery or crematorium. Another option is to have a funeral without references to religion, or a non-denominational service which can include some religious aspects. This type of service is usually conducted by a civil celebrant, and often takes place in a cemetery or crematorium chapel, followed by burial or cremation immediately following the service.
Burial
We arrange for new plots in your chosen cemetery and will also liaise with local gravediggers, council and cemetery caretakers.
Cremation
We arrange appropriate appointments at your crematorium of choice and provide the necessary documentation.
