F W Jones F. W. Jones & Son provides compassionate, professional support to families in Chippenham. We are F. Paul's Church and St.

With generations of local expertise we offer personalised funerals, caring guidance and 24‑hour assistance from our welcoming home at 30 Market Place. Jones & Son Funeral Directors in Chippenham, and are here to help make a difficult time a little easier for you and your family. We love the community we serve and have a wealth of local knowledge, as well as many decades of funeral expertise passed down over the generations. Our founder, Frederick William Jones, was born in 1904 in the village of Studley. He began working life as a cabinetmaker, and loved football as a keen supporter of Chippenham Town FC. His skill set equipped him to do a funeral undertaking apprenticeship at E Wootten & Son, before he decided to start his own caring and professional funeral services. It was not long before he became a popular and valued part of the community. Three generations later, the Jones family are still part of our funeral directors today. We have a warm and welcoming funeral home with large windows and beautiful paintings of 'old Chippenham'. We have an impeccable Coleman Milne Mercedes fleet, which you can use for your loved one's funeral service if you wish. We have strong ties with the community we love; we are located close to West Wiltshire Crematorium, St. Andrew's Church, where we hold a Christmas memorial service every year with around 300 people attending in memory of their loved ones. We are here for you, no matter what, and you can call us 24 hours a day. Please get in touch as soon as you need advice or assistance.

As spring begins, the churchyard at St. Andrews has come alive with beautiful primroses, reminding us of the warmth and renewal this season brings.

Here at F. W. Jones & Son, we’re grateful for the small moments of peace found in nature and the sense of hope they offer. These early blooms are a gentle reminder of light returning, warmer days ahead, and the importance of pausing to appreciate the world around us.

Wishing our Chippenham community a calm and uplifting start to spring.

If you need our support, please feel free to drop in to us at 30 Market Place or call 01249 652 525.

A warm welcome to our new Funeral Director, Meg

We are pleased to introduce Meg Cathcart‑James, who has recently joined F W Jones as our Funeral Director.

Meg brings with her extensive experience within the funeral profession along with a strong commitment to supporting families with compassion during their most difficult moments. Her dedication to high standards of service makes her a valuable addition to our team and to the community we serve.

Outside of work, Meg is a keen habitat conservationist and enjoys growing flowers and vegetables (lots to do as Spring emerges!), often with the 'help' of a cat or two in the greenhouse.

We are delighted to welcome Meg to the branch - she will be out and about getting to know the local area so if you spot her, please do say hello.

🌿 Proud to Serve Our Community 🌿

Working in funeral care isn’t just a job — it’s a privilege. Every day, we support families through some of their most difficult moments, helping them honour the lives of the people they love.

It’s work that teaches compassion, patience, and the value of truly listening. It reminds us how important kindness is… and how much it matters that no one has to face loss alone.

I’m grateful to be part of a team that puts dignity, respect, and care at the heart of everything we do. 🤝💙
