Although not a regular occurrence this is a scam that reaches new depths. Should anyone be asked for money to view a live-streaming of a funeral be aware that it is a scam.

This is a good example of who funerals are for and how complicated "not wanting a fuss" can be emotionally to those who love you.

We get asked quite frequently if we "do those cremations like on the TV" The Answer is YES. So here is a simple Yes / No comparison to help you make your choice simpler.

Direct cremations… all you need to know and be aware of. Not everything is what it seems on TV.

With the increase of national firms spending millions of pounds pushing Direct Cremations we have to ask how are they using the "F" word? Direct cremations have gained popularity as a cost-effective alternative to traditional funerals, but they often omit many of the personal and ceremonial aspects....

Always great to meet with like minded people who care passionately about what they do. Thanks for visiting us today Kathy.

Today I had the pleasure of visiting Ugalde Funeral Directors Liskeard. Bryan and his team were most welcoming and it was lovely to have a tour of their premises. I really enjoyed my time and the wonderful conversation, always a pleasure speaking with our funeral directors about supporting our families.

The cost of dying is always a concern for us and this report clearly shows the way certain surveys are averaging up the cost of a funeral.

It is true that costs have risen beyond inflation however as always we would urge you to have a talk with your local funeral director about financing a funeral. It doesn’t have to be “the national average”

Funeral poverty has always been a subject that we feel strongly about and you will be surprised at what we offer in terms of costs that will enable you to afford a good funeral for your loved one.

Just reach out and we will be more than happy to give you some “local average” prices.

Latest SunLife study shows average total funeral cost at £9,797 with many selling off possessions to help pay

Remembering everyone who has been affected by war and conflict.

Every year in early November, the poppy takes on a special meaning across the UK and beyond. It’s a powerful, simple reminder of the bravery and sacrifice made by so many in the Armed Forces, not just in past world wars but in conflicts throughout history. Remembrance Sunday, observed on…
