Multi Award Winning
Independent Family Owned and Run Funeral Homes Valentines Family Funeral Home are an Award Winning, Independent, Family Owned and Run Funeral Directors run by the Valentine-Fuller Family. We are committed to providing a very unique and bespoke, ‘HAVE IT YOUR WAY’ service. We cater for all religions and cultures and

we specialise in the little things that are often overseen by other Funeral Directors. We offer a very personal, family orientated service. We are first and foremost a family caring for other families with the utmost DIGNITY, HONESTY and RESPECT, at the very heart of everything we do. After losing our own special loved ones, we have made it our vocation in life to help families with, what we know is the hardest and saddest time of their lives. We strive to respond to the wishes of every family, by arranging the most appropriate and fitting farewell relevant to families’ personal and financial circumstances. We treat families as if they were our own and we never want families to face distress and grief alone. We will be there every step of the way personally, not only as a local undertaker but as a family friend. From the very first phone call, right up to the day of the funeral, bereaved families will be supported by the same person throughout. We will do everything in our power to fulfil families’ wishes.

DYING MATTERS WEEK

Thinking of the Future 💙

Planning ahead is one of the greatest gifts you can leave your loved ones.

At Valentines / G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors, we understand that talking about funerals and future wishes can feel difficult — but having those conversations early can bring enormous comfort, clarity, and peace of mind when the time comes.

That’s why we offer our complimentary “Funeral Wishes” service.

Our caring team can sit with you either in the comfort of our funeral home or in your own home, and gently guide you through your personal wishes for your farewell — completely free of charge.

From the type of ceremony and music, to readings, transport, flowers, dress code, venue choices, and personal touches that truly reflect your life — we will carefully record every detail so your family knows exactly what you wanted.

For those wishing to take things a step further, we can also help arrange a prepaid funeral plan, giving reassurance that everything is organised in advance and helping to ease future financial pressures on loved ones.

Because planning ahead isn’t about dwelling on death…
it’s about protecting the people we love most.

Services Spotlight | Our Chapels of Rest

At Valentines & G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors, we understand how important those final moments together can be.

Our private Chapels of Rest offers families a peaceful, calm, and comforting space to spend time with their loved one — with or without a closed casket.

Whether you wish to sit quietly in reflection, play your loved one’s favourite music, share stories, hold a small intimate service, or simply say goodbye in your own way and at your own pace, we are here to support you with compassion, dignity, and complete privacy.

There is no right or wrong way to say farewell.
These moments are personal, meaningful, and often deeply important in helping families through grief.

Our caring team will always be by your side to ensure your wishes are respected every step of the way. 💙

“Funerals are not just about saying goodbye…
they are about creating moments of love, reflection, and remembrance.”

💙 DYING MATTERS WEEK 💙
🌈 Celebrating a Life with Colourful Hearses & Personal Touches 🌈

A funeral doesn’t have to be traditional.
At Valentines / G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors, we believe every farewell should reflect the unique life, personality, and passions of the person being remembered.

That’s why we offer a wide range of personal touches and alternative funeral options, including:

🏍 Motorcycle hearses with accompanying motorcycle cortège
🐴 Horse-drawn carriages
🌈 Colourful hearses
👔 Colour-themed ties and dress codes
💐 Favourite flowers and bespoke floral tributes
🎶 Personal music choices and unique memorial touches

And so much more…

No two lives are the same — and no two funerals need to be either.

Whether your loved one was bold and vibrant, quiet and elegant, or completely unconventional, our caring team will do everything possible to help create a meaningful and personal farewell that truly honours them.

This is by no means an extensive list — we are always here to accommodate personal wishes and ideas, helping families celebrate life in their own special way.

DYING MATTERS WEEK.
Funerals Your Way | Alternative Venues. A funeral should reflect the life it honours.

At Valentines / G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors, we believe every goodbye should be as unique as the person it celebrates.

That’s why we offer alternative venues beyond the traditional Church, Crematorium, or Chapel.

From hotels and peaceful gardens to community halls, beautiful settings like Wadhurst Castle, and even wedding venues or private estates — we help families create personal, meaningful, and truly unforgettable farewells.

There are no rules when it comes to honouring a life well lived — only what feels right for you and your family.

Your loved one’s life was one of a kind…
their farewell can be too.

If you’d like to explore more personal ways to say goodbye, we are here to guide you — every step of the way 💙

💙 Dying Matters Week 💙

Today marks the start of Dying Matters Week — a national moment to break the silence around death, dying, and grief.

At Valentines / G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors, we understand that these conversations are never easy… but they are so important.

Talking about death doesn’t bring it closer — it brings comfort, clarity, and peace of mind to those we love.

This week, we’ll be sharing:
✨ Guidance on planning ahead
✨ Ways to celebrate and honour life
✨ Support for navigating grief
✨ Ideas to help you say goodbye meaningfully

Because funerals aren’t just about loss…
They are about love, memory, and the people left behind.

Let’s start the conversation.
Let’s make it matter.

💙 By your side on your loved one’s final journey

Sadly, Al died a few weeks ago. Many of you who live in Orpington, will remember him. He loved a coffee, sitting watching the world go by, dressed impeccably, always.

Next week, we celebrate him.... his friends and loved ones coming together to pay tribute to a man who was known as Mr Orpington.

Bless your heart Al, you was a good un.

💙 Proud to Stand with Our Community – G.M. Valentine Supporting James Fest ‘26 💙

We are incredibly proud to be official sponsors of James Fest 2026 – a fantastic community event bringing people together in support of St James’ School.

We’ve seen first-hand the incredible work, care, and dedication that goes into shaping young lives. Schools like St James’ are the heart of our community – places where futures begin, friendships are formed, and values are built.

Our commitment to the community runs deep. From events like Silent Lights at Christmas, where we bring people together to remember and reflect, to supporting local families every single day, we believe in standing alongside the people we serve – in both the hardest and the most joyful moments.

James Fest is about exactly that… community, togetherness, and creating lasting memories.

We encourage everyone to get involved, support this wonderful event, and celebrate everything that makes our local area so special.

🎶 Live music
🍔 Food & drink
🎉 Family fun
❤️ All in support of a brilliant local school

Let’s come together and make it a day to remember.

With warmest wishes,
G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors

This Easter, we are truly overwhelmed.

From all of us at Valentines Family Funeral Directors and G.M. Valentine Family Funeral Directors, we want to say a heartfelt thank you.

Because of your kindness, generosity, and community spirit, we have received an incredible number of chocolate donations. What may seem like a simple gift has meant the world to so many.

Together, we have been able to bring a little light, comfort, and joy to families in need across our communities — and most importantly, to poorly children who deserve a moment of happiness during difficult times.

Every egg donated carries more than chocolate…
It carries love, compassion, and hope.

Easter is a time of reflection, renewal, and hope — a reminder of the importance of kindness, togetherness, and new beginnings. Your generosity truly reflects the spirit of this special time.

This is what community looks like. This is what kindness can do.

We are so proud to stand amongst such incredible people.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for making a difference this Easter.

We wish you all a peaceful, hopeful, and love-filled Easter.

With love,
Gary, Kirsty and all the team at Valentines & G.M. Valentine 💙
