FUNERAL CHARGES

The cost of your funeral will depend upon the choices you make. Every funeral is unique and individual, from the most simplistic to the ornate and lavish; the overall cost depends on what you want. Costs comprise three sections: Professional Fees, which are what we charge for goods and services; Optional Charges for things that you may request but are not essential to the basic funeral; and Third-Party Fees, which are costs payable to the Crematorium, Cemetery, Minister, etc.

 

In line with the National Association of Funeral Directors CODE and the Competitions and Markets Authority Funeral Order, we have various costs to meet different needs. Our 'Standardised Price List' is our starting point that provides the essentials for just about every funeral we carry out. You can add any number of 'Optional Charges' to meet your needs or deduct services you don't want. The 'Standardised Price List' ensures that every family can arrange a dignified and intimate funeral experience at an affordable cost. For those who are in financial hardship, the first step is to speak with us. We can direct you towards a funeral that can help meet your limited funds; we can also help support you through the process of seeking DWP assistance through the Social Fund (if applicable). If you need financial support and want more about the help available through the DWP, click here. We hope the sections below give you all the information you require, but if you need more help, call us.

​

It is important to remember that there is no legal requirement to contract the services of a Funeral Director. In addition, you can render all or part of our services to meet your needs, and other suppliers can provide certain additional services to you. Ultimately, you can arrange your provisions without instructing a Funeral Director. However, we believe that our charges represent good value for money when considering the services we provide, our resources such as staff, facilities and professional skills and experience. Should you be experiencing genuine financial hardship, LET US KNOW; you may be surprised to learn that we understand and are willing to help.
