Independent Funeral Directors Bristol

Chris Wilshire and Louise Constable decided, after many years of working in the funeral industry and having gained a huge amount of knowledge and experience, to pull their resources together and open Brunel Independent Funeral Directors. Today, we have a small – very carefully selected – dedicated team that work with us, who are just as passionate in providing you with the service you are looking for and your loved one deserves. Our tranquil funeral home – on the edge of Westbury on Trym, Bristol – is bright and welcoming. It’s here that the deceased will be taken to from the hospital or their place of death. You’re welcome to come and visit them, as often as you like, to discuss the arrangements of the funeral with our team. As independent funeral directors, we like to do things differently to other funeral providers, here at Brunel Funeral Directors. We refuse to rush our families – giving you all the time you need to make the right decision for you and your loved one – providing a very personal and individual experience and making sure that you are aware of all the choices and options available to you. We understand that planning a funeral is difficult – especially at what is an already emotionally charged time. Not everyone has experience with making funeral arrangements and for most, it’ll be the first time. We will sit with you and listen to your requests, ideas and thoughts. We’ll be able to work with you and arrange the perfect funeral for your loved one. Whether it be a traditional service or a real celebration of someone’s life. We can help make it an occasion to remember for the right reasons. As you’d expect from independent funeral directors, we are here to help you organise the perfect ceremony, but can also help with floral arrangements, masonry, memorabilia, funeral plans, and more. One thing that makes us stand out from other funeral directors in Bristol is that we are prepared to go the extra mile and do everything we can to support the bereaved during this difficult time. We offer support to our families for as long as it’s needed after the funeral has taken place – helping them to cope with the loss of a loved one, and to grieve properly, by offering professionalism, care and compassion to their needs. So, if you’re looking for funeral directors in Bristol, don’t hesitate to get in touch. We are here to help, every step of the way, and will do everything we possibly can to support you and your family at this sad time.
