Funeral Directors > Kidderminster
We are an ordinary local family helping your family. We apply the same standards as we would to our own family members. We have gleaned experience in the funeral world for many years in a wide range of places and from a range of perspectives and want to give you as many choices as possible.
We can help you realise your wish be it cemetery burial, woodland burial or cremation, traditional or modern, simple or elaborate, religious, spiritual or non-religious, or just completely bespoke, artistic and creative – when it comes to funerals and celebrations of life you are the author. Many people do not realise that there are no rules controlling what a funeral should be like. People often say ‘oh I didn’t know I didn’t have to do that’. Funerals are changing and even more so since Covid brought about enforced changes. People have become a lot more creative and are doing things differently. We get job satisfaction from knowing you were able to express yourself in the way you feel comfortable.
