Hubert Swainson Funeral Services are experienced and independent funeral directors who have been at the heart of the local community for over one hundred years, helping those who have suffered bereavements to say goodbye to their loved ones with dignity. Established c.1881, the service is now delivered by Mr Tim Canavar, the owner and manager of Hubert Swainson Funeral Services. Tim worked for many years with his father-in-law, Mr Geoffrey Brewster who in turn took over the business from his father-in-law Mr Hubert Swainson, who built up the successful company that continues to this day. Mr Hubert Swainson had come into the business after service in the RAF during World War II and brought his dedication and drive, insisting on the highest standards of work and ethical considerations. Hubert Swainson worked alongside his father, Mr Ernest Swainson, who originally established the business as a cabinetmaker, carpenter and funeral director. This family history is very important to the business today; the high standards established over the years have created an outstanding reputation as Funeral Directors and has made us into experienced funeral directors who’s every effort is made to ensure this excellence in personal arrangements continues.

There comes a stage in all our lives when it’s natural to think about when we won’t be here. At Hubert Swainson Funeral Services, we are proud to partner with Golden Charter, one of the UK’s largest funeral plan providers.

With a Golden Charter funeral plan you can choose us as your preferred funeral director. When the time comes, we’ll take care of your wishes locally with the utmost care and respect.

Talking about death and funerals isn’t easy. And yet there are several very good reasons why having a funeral plan in place makes perfect sense – from an emotional, practical and financial point of view. From a traditional funeral, to something simpler, with a plan in place you can make sure you get the send-off you really want.

A plan allows you to specify your wishes and pay for the funeral director’s services included within your plan, bringing peace of mind to you and your family.

If you would like to find out more about a Gold Charter Funeral Plan, please contact our office on 01423 504571 or email: info@hubertswainson.co.uk.
