Arranging a Funeral ~ First Steps
Visiting your loved one
Everyone deals with grief in a different way, and it’s entirely up to you whether or not you visit the deceased in our private chapels of rest. If you would like more information, It’s a decision that we are always very happy to discuss with you.
Many people who have suffered bereavement find comfort from spending some quiet time with their loved one and can be a helpful element of the grieving process.

Hygienic Treatment
Hygienic treatment - embalming - preserves the natural appearance of your loved one. It is helpful for you to provide a recent photograph of the deceased to assist us with this preparation and ensure that relatives and friends have a comforting remembrance.
