Recently, we were honoured to say farewell to a lovely lady in a heartfelt service at a local chapel.

Many would have known Pam for feeding the horses around the Broughton and Bretton area. She touched many lives with her gentle kindness and will be greatly missed.

Cake Donation Available For Macmillan Coffee Morning!

We’d like to send a warm shoutout to everyone hosting a Macmillan Coffee Morning on Friday 26th September (Official Coffee Morning Day).

If you’re organising an event, we would love to support your efforts by donating a cake. Your commitment to such a wonderful cause deserves to be celebrated!

We would have loved to organise our own event, but thought it may be considered insensitive… so instead we would be delighted to contribute a sweet treat to your gathering!

Please get in touch with us if you’d like a delicious cake for your coffee morning. Together, let’s make your event even more memorable and help raise vital funds for Macmillan.

Based on first come first served!!

Thank you for all that you do!

We are deeply honoured to have supported so many families through one of life's most difficult moments.
If we have had the privilege of guiding you or your loved ones through a farewell, we would be truly grateful if you shared your experience with us on Google.

Thank you for allowing and entrusting us to take care for your loved ones.

Here at John Knowles Funeral Services, we have seen an increase in marketing activity from some national direct cremation providers.

Many people aren’t even aware that their local independent funeral director offers the same direct cremation services, let me assure you that this is something we have always offered.

What makes us different?

Our team of qualified staff all live and work in our local community.

Our team are here to guide and support you and your loved ones.

Your loved one will be transferred into our care at the earliest opportunity, and they will remain with us until the cremation takes place.

Our non-attended cremations are carried out within days of the paperwork being completed and the ashes returned in the following days.

We can arrange for your loved one to be dressed in their own clothing and you can visit them in our chapel of rest.

If you’d like to plan for the future, we can also arrange a direct cremation Golden Charter funeral plan.

If you are considering a non-attended or direct cremation for a loved one’s funeral, or for making your own funeral arrangements in advance with a pre-paid funeral plan, then please do call in to any of our branches or speak with us on 01244 530220.
