Required disclosures

What we don't do

No referral fees. We do not pay or receive any payment, commission or other reward for referring families to, or accepting referrals from, a crematorium, cemetery, burial ground, hospice, care home, hospital, coroner or any other organisation.

No hidden charges. The price quoted to you in writing before you commit is the price you will be asked to pay. If anything changes — for example, you choose a different coffin or add a limousine — we will tell you the new price and ask you to agree to it before proceeding.

No pressure. You may take our price list away, compare us with other funeral directors, and come back at any time. There is no obligation in asking.

Read the full ownership and regulatory information on our disclosure page, or see how we comply with the CMA Order on our CMA compliance page.
