Hughes Funeral Directors

We are a family owned and run Funeral directors serving all areas with 30 years experience. Our aim is to bring you a personal service to meet the needs of you and your loved ones at competitive prices. Losing a loved one is one of the hardest things we have to face, but we understand and know that creating that final journey is extremely important. At this time you need a funeral director that’s going to be there for you every step of the way.

We will guide you every step of the way, giving you all your options with complete transparency. We will always be available to you 24 hours a day. We will not stop you viewing your loved one if they have passed due to Covid-19. Hygienic preparation will need to be carried out and will be carried out by my self. The facilities are cleaned daily with a professional machine decontaminating not just surfaces but the air also. From the time your loved one comes into our care, they will be treated with the upmost respect and dignity at all times. We don’t just limit you visiting your loved one in the chapel of rest during office hours, we understand that sometimes you can be sat there one evening and have a need to visit your loved one. Rather than the pain of having to wait until the morning, call us and we will open up the funeral home to enable you to do so that evening. We do not charge extra for this service.
