We don't believe in making profit from your grief when buying a funeral is such an emotional purchase.
Being a family run business with only a small number of staff we can afford to provide low cost funerals, we don't believe in making profit from your grief when buying a funeral is such an emotional purchase.
Our low cost funeral packages offer an alternative to standard and costly funeral services in the North West. Our compassionate and dedicated team, who are available 24 hours a day during the process, will also be there to offer support, guidance and help with the flow of the day.

You can pay for the funeral in full at any time during the arrangements or before the funeral. You will receive an invoice within 7 days of the funeral service and we will request payment within 28 days.
We accept payment by cash, cheque, bank transfer, credit and debit cards. If you are experiencing difficulties paying any outstanding amount, please contact us. We may be able to make an arrangement.
Help with funeral costs
If concerns arise about covering funeral expenses, the Social Fund, part of the Department of Work and Pensions, may offer assistance. You may qualify for help if you are responsible for the funeral and meet specific criteria related to income and benefits.
Funeral expenses vary based on your choices. We provide a detailed estimate covering costs such as disbursements for the cemetery or crematorium, officiant, church, doctor's fees, newspaper notices, flowers and more. You will receive an itemised estimate and invoice.
Please ask us. We would far rather have the conversation early than have you worrying about it on your own.
