The service was excellent and you would not get better by going to a high street funeral director and paying 2 or 3 times as much. We couldn’t have asked for a better send off for our brother.

We met up with family and said goodbye together in our way. The way mum wanted. Fantastic value, fantastic staff, fantastic company that’s with you every step of the way.

Planning your own reception or memorial

Instead of a funeral service, a memorial can give you the chance to come together with friends and family and celebrate your loved one’s life. If this is something you’re considering, these ideas from our team could help you get started.

Plant a new life

Grow a memorial tree or rosebush from the ashes of your loved one, in our special tree planting urn.

Raise a glass to them

Get everyone together for a send-off at a pub or venue. You could also hire a DJ or live band to play their favourite songs.

Enjoy their favourite view

Go for a walk and scatter their ashes in a place they loved. This might be somewhere local, or a place they enjoyed going on holiday.
