Direct Cremations
Did you know that in 2019, just 3% of funeral services were direct cremation, compared to 20% in 2024. Whilst internet based providers have lovely television adverts for direct cremations, how transparent are they actually being? Most local independent funeral directors can offer direct cremations, and at Bate & Holland we have been conducting direct cremations since 2017, offering families funeral options to suit all budgets and requirements.
Contact your funeral director today for more information on direct cremations, or any other services we provide. St Helens 01744 302647, Wigan 01942 273 347 🖤

A few weeks ago we were invited to attend the High Sheriff's awards, recognising the contribution the Coroner's team make to the county of Cheshire. We are so grateful to be included, and for our Coroner's team to receive such wonderful feedback from His Majesty's Senior Coroner! 🖤

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our lovely colleague Joe. Joe came to us following retirement from the Fire Service, and was a much loved and respected member of our team.
Funeral details to follow. Goodnight God-Bless Joe, you will be missed 🖤
