Choices for families
You can discuss who will attend and whether you would like readings, music or another personal touch. The service and arrangements are agreed with the branch; ask which options are available before making a decision.

Our Funeral Services
Simple funeral
A simple funeral is an attended funeral. It keeps the arrangements straightforward while giving family and friends the opportunity to come together for the agreed service.
A simple funeral is attended: family and friends can be present for the agreed service. It is not the same as an unattended direct cremation, where family and friends do not attend the cremation.
Before the service
Your funeral director can explain the arrangements being considered, what information or documents may be needed, and what this branch can provide. Any venue or third-party requirements will be confirmed with you.
During the service
Because a simple funeral is attended, family and friends who are invited can be present for the agreed service. Your funeral director can explain the order of events and what to expect beforehand.
Afterwards
After the service, families may wish to spend time together or remember their loved one in another way. Ask your funeral director about any follow-up arrangements you are considering.
What the funeral director can help arrange
Your funeral director can talk through the attended service, make clear how it differs from an unattended direct cremation, and explain the choices and costs this branch can confirm.
Costs and price information
The total cost depends on the arrangements you choose and any third-party fees. These can vary by provider and location. Review this branch's published price information and ask for an up-to-date, itemised explanation before confirming arrangements.
