Alternative Funeral Cost

We understand that planning a funeral can feel confusing during an already difficult time. To make the process as simple and clear as possible, we’ve highlighted the estimated cost of our local Alternative Funeral for your loved one.

The estimated price of our local Alternative Funeral includes a Park Coffin. We can personalise the service or coffin for an additional cost to meet your specific needs and preferences.

Choosing our local Alternative Funeral will see our expert funeral directors advise and guide you through all aspects of the funeral. Your loved one will rest in our climate-controlled mortuary, and you will have the opportunity to visit them in our Chapel of Rest during regular office hours. We want to help you in every way we can, so we will also liaise with necessary third parties and manage all documentation for the funeral on your behalf.

On the day of the funeral, your loved one will be driven by a chauffeur in a traditional hearse to the service venue where you and your loved ones can remember them and celebrate their life. The cremation will then be carried out with the utmost care at one of our selected local crematoria without any mourners present.
